5065. Narrated ‘Alqama: While I was with ‘Abdullāh, ‘Uthmān met him at Minā and said, “O Abū ‘Abdur-Raḥmān! I have something to say to you.” So both of them went aside and ‘Uthmān said, “O Abū ‘Abdur-Raḥmān! Shall we marry you to a virgin who will make you remember your past days?” When ‘Abdullāh felt that he was not in need of that, he beckoned me (to join him) saying, “O ‘Alqama!” Then I heard him saying (in reply to ‘Uthmān), “As you have said that, (I tell you that) the Prophet ﷺ once said to us, ‘O young people! Whoever among you is able to marry, should marry, and whoever is not able to marry, is recommended to observe Saum (fast) as fasting will diminish his sexual power."

5065 - حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، فَلَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ بِمِنًى، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنَّ لِي إِلَيْكَ حَاجَةً فَخَلَوَا، فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ: هَلْ لَكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي أَنْ نُزَوِّجَكَ بِكْرًا، تُذَكِّرُكَ مَا كُنْتَ تَعْهَدُ؟ فَلَمَّا رَأَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ إِلَى هَذَا أَشَارَ إِلَيَّ، فَقَالَ: يَا عَلْقَمَةُ، فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: أَمَا لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ، لَقَدْ قَالَ لَنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ البَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَعَلَيْهِ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ»
