5128. Narrated 'Aishah رضي الله عنها as regards the Verse – "And about what is recited unto you in the Book, concerning the orphan girls whom you give not the prescribed portions (as regards Mahr and inheritance) and yet, whom you desire to marry..." (V.4:127): This Verse is about the female orphan who is under the guardianship of a man with whom she shares her property and he has more right over her (than anybody else) but does not like to marry her, so he prevents her, from marrying somebody else, lest he should share the property with him.

Arabic text

5128 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، {وَمَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الكِتَابِ فِي يَتَامَى النِّسَاءِ، اللَّاتِي لاَ تُؤْتُونَهُنَّ مَا كُتِبَ لَهُنَّ، وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ} [النساء: 127] قَالَتْ: «هَذَا فِي اليَتِيمَةِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ عِنْدَ الرَّجُلِ، لَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تَكُونَ شَرِيكَتَهُ فِي مَالِهِ، وَهُوَ أَوْلَى بِهَا، فَيَرْغَبُ عَنْهَا أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا، فَيَعْضُلَهَا لِمَالِهَا، وَلاَ يُنْكِحَهَا غَيْرَهُ، كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ يَشْرَكَهُ أَحَدٌ فِي مَالِهَا»
