Hadith 108:223

Al-Qawariri narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, from ‘Amr, from Jabir, who said: My father died and left behind seven daughters or nine daughters—Hammad said: I do not know it except that he said nine—so I married a previously married woman. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: "Have you married, O Jabir?" I said: "Yes." He said: "A virgin or a previously married woman?" I said: "A previously married woman." He said: "Why not a young girl whom you could play with and she could play with you?" or he said: "Whom you could make laugh and she could make you laugh?" I said: "‘Abdullah died and left behind nine daughters, and I disliked bringing them someone like them, so I wanted a woman who would look after them." He said: "May Allah bless you," or he said: "Good."

حدثنا القواريري حدثنا حماد عن عمرو عن جابر قال هلك أبي فترك سبع بنات أو تسع بنات قال حماد ولا أعلمه إلا قال تسع فتزوجت امرأة ثيبا فقال لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم * تزوجت يا جابر قلت نعم قال بكرا أم ثيبا قلت ثيبا قال فهلا جارية تلاعبها وتلاعبك أو قال تضاحكها وتضاحكك قال قلت إن عبد الله هلك وترك تسع بنات وإني كرهت أن أجيئهن بمثلهن فأردت امرأة تقوم عليهن فقال لي بارك الله لك أو قال خيرا
