THE SISTERS OF JABIR BIN ABDILLAH AL-ANSARI
Were from the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
The scholars differ concerning their number, some say he had seven sisters, some say nine.
Jabir bin 'Abdillah said,
"I married a woman during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
When I came across him, he ﷺ said:
يَا جَابِرُ تَزَوَّجْتَ؟
"Jabir, have you married?"
قُلْتُ نَعَمْ .
قَالَ بِكْرٌ أَمْ تَيّب". قُلْتُ تَيِّب .
قَالَ فَهَلاً بِكْرًا تُلاعِبُهَا “.
"I said, 'Yes.'
He ﷺ said, 'A virgin or one previously married?'
I said, 'Previously married.'
He ﷺ said, 'Why did you not marry a virgin with whom to play together?'
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي أَخَوَاتٍ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُنَّ . قَالَ فَذَاكَ إِذا إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ تُنْكَحُ عَلَى دِينِهَا وَمَالِهَا وَجَمَالِهَا فَعَلَيْكَ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ .
"I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I have sisters, and I was afraid that she (a virgin) might intervene between me and them.'
He ﷺ said, 'In that case, this is good.
A woman is married for her religion, her wealth, and her beauty, so you should choose one with religion.
May you prosper!"
[Sahih Muslim 715]
