Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26999

Qutaibah told us, Hammad bin Zaid told us, on the authority of Matar Al-Warraq, on the authority of Rabi’ah bin Abi Abdul Rahman, on the authority of Sulayman bin Yasar, on the authority of Abu Rafi’ said, “The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, married Maimunah, and it was permissible, and he had children with her, and it was permissible, and I was the Messenger between them.” Abu Issa said: This is a hasan hadith, and we do not know of anyone who narrated it except Hammad bin Zayd, on the authority of Matar al-Warraq, on the authority of Rabi’ah. Malik bin narrated Anas, on the authority of Rabi’ah, on the authority of Sulayman bin Yassar, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, married Maimuna while it was permissible. Malik narrated it on a mursal report. He said: It was also narrated by Suleiman bin Bilal, on the authority of Rabi’ah, on the authority of a mursal. Abu Issa said, and it was narrated on the authority of Yazid bin Al-Asam, on the authority of Maimunah, who said, “Marry me.” The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and it is permissible. Yazid bin Al-Asam is the son of Maimuna’s sister.
