The Book of Marriage

كتاب النكاح

Hadith 9:354

Khalid ibn Makhlad narrated to us, from Malik ibn Anas, from al-Zuhri, from Qabisa ibn Dhu'ayb, who said: Uthman ibn Affan was asked about two sisters from among those whom the right hand possesses, [regarding] combining them [in marriage/intercourse]. He said: "A verse from the Book of Allah made them lawful, and a verse made them unlawful. As for me, I do not like to do that."

حدثنا خالد بن مخلد عن مالك بن أنس عن الزهري عن قبيصة بن ذؤيب قال سئل عثمان بن عفان عن الأختين من ملك اليمين يجمع بينهما فقال أحلتهما آية من كتاب الله وحرمتهما آية وأما أنا فما أحب أن افعل ذلك
