نِكَاحِ الصِّغَارِ يُزَوِّجُهُنَّ غَيْرُ الآبَاءِ

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الصَّائِغُ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ حِينَ هَلَكَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ مَظْعُونٍ تَرَكَ ابْنَةً لَهُ، قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: فَزَوَّجَنِيهَا خَالِي قُدَامَةُ وَهُوَ عَمُّهَا، وَلَمْ يُشَاوِرْهَا وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا هَلَكَ أَبُوهَا، فَكَرِهَتْ نِكَاحَهُ، وَأَحَبَّتِ الْجَارِيَةُ أَنْ يُزَوِّجَهَا الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ، فَزَوَّجَهَا إِيَّاهُ .

Marriage of minor girls arranged by someone other than their fathers

When Uthman bin Mazun رضی اللہ عنہ died, he left behind a daughter. Ibn Umar رضی اللہ عنہما said: “My maternal uncle Qudamah رضی اللہ عنہ, who was her paternal uncle, married me to her, but he did not consult her. That was after her father had died. She did not like this marriage, and the girl wanted to marry Mughirah bin Shubah رضی اللہ عنہ, so she married him.”
