The Book of Marriage
كتاب النكاح
Hadith 9:494
Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Hushaym informed us, from Yunus, from al-Hasan, that a man married a woman and kept it secret, and he used to visit her at her house. A neighbor of hers saw him entering upon her and accused her of adultery. He disputed with him before Umar ibn al-Khattab. He said: "O Commander of the Faithful, this man used to enter upon a young woman, and I do not know that he married her." He (Umar) said to him (the husband): "What do you say?" He said: "I married a woman for something small, and I kept that secret." He (Umar) said: "Who witnessed it for you?" He said: "I had some of her family witness it." He (Umar) warded off the prescribed punishment from the one who accused her, and he said: "Publicize this marriage and protect these private parts."
حدثنا أبو بكر قال أنا هشيم عن يونس عن الحسن أن رجلا تزوج امرأة فأسر ذلك فكان يختلف اليها في منزلها فرآه جار لها يدخل عليها فقذفة بها فخاصمه إلى عمر بن الخطاب فقال يا أمير المؤمنين هذا كان يدخل على جارية ولا أعلمه تزوجها فقال له ما تقول فقال تزوجت امرأة على شيء دون فأخفيت ذلك قال فمن شهدكم قال أشهدت بعض أهلها قال فدرأ الحد عن قاذفه وقال أعلنوا هذا النكاح وحصنوا هذه الفروج
