Arabic text

3236 - أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي شَوَّالٍ، وَأُدْخِلْتُ عَلَيْهِ فِي شَوَّالٍ، وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تُدْخِلَ نِسَاءَهَا فِي شَوَّالٍ، فَأَيُّ نِسَائِهِ كَانَتْ أَحْظَى عِنْدَهُ مِنِّي»

Commentary

The literal meaning of the term Shawwāl is a bit ignominious. The Arabs, therefore, regarded this month ill-fated during the period of ignorance. Hence, why they used to regard the making of marriage contracts in this month as an evil omen, as some people nowadays do not consider marriage contracts permissible in the month of Muharram, which, according to them, is the month of mourning. But Islam does not entertain such superstitions.
