English translation

[3476] 66 - (1421) It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbâs that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The previously-married woman has more right concerning herself than her guardian does, and the virgin should be asked for permission, and her permission is her silence."

Arabic text

٦٦ - (١٤٢١) حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ. قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ. ح وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يحيى (واللفظ له) قال: قلت لمالك حدثك عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ؛ أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صلى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم قَالَ: "الْأَيِّمُ أَحَقُّ بِنَفْسِهَا مِنْ وَلِيِّهَا. وَالْبِكْرُ تُسْتَأْذَنُ فِي نَفْسِهَا. وَإِذْنُهَا صماتها؟ " قال: نعم.
