Hadith 33:896

Muhammad ibn Abi ‘Adi narrated to us, from Sulayman—meaning al-Taymi—from Abu Nadrah, from Jabir, who said: I was traveling on a camel of mine used for drawing water, at the rear of the caravan. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) struck it a strike—or he said: he poked it a poke—and after that, it would be at the front of the caravan, except when I restrained it. He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to me and said: "Will you sell it to me for such and such, and may Allah forgive you?" I said: "It is yours, O Messenger of Allah." He said: Then he increased the offer for me and said: "Will you sell it to me for such and such, and may Allah forgive you?" I said: "It is yours, O Messenger of Allah." Sulayman said: I do not know how many times. He said: "Will you sell it to me for such and such?" Then he said: "Have you married after your father?" I said: "Yes." He said: "A virgin or a previously married woman?" I said: "A previously married woman." He said: "Why did you not marry a virgin, so that you might play with her and she might play with you, and you might make her laugh and she might make you laugh?"

حدثنا محمد بن أبي عدي، عن سليمان يعني التيمي، عن أبي نضرة، عن جابر، قال: كنت أسير على ناضح لي في أخريات الركاب، فضربه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ضربة - أو قال: فنخسه نخسة - قال: فكان بعد ذلك يكون في أول الركاب إلا ما كففته، قال: فأتاني رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: " أتبيعنيه بكذا، وكذا، والله يغفر لك " قال: قلت: هو لك يا رسول الله، قال: فزادني قال: " أتبيعنيه بكذا، وكذا، والله يغفر لك " قال: قلت: هو لك يا رسول الله - قال سليمان: فلا أدري كم من مرة - قال: " أتبيعنيه بكذا، وكذا؟ "، ثم قال: " هل تزوجت بعد أبيك؟ " قال: قلت: نعم. قال: " أبكرا أم ثيبا؟ " قال: قلت: ثيبا. قال: " ألا تزوجتها بكرا تلاعبك، وتلاعبها، وتضاحكك، وتضاحكها "
