إِنِّي لَذَاتَ يَوْمٍ عِنْدَ زِيَادِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَارِثِيِّ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَعْدِي عَلَى أَبِيهِ فَقَالَ أَصْلَحَ اللَّهُ الْأَمِيرَ إِنَّ أَبِي زَوَّجَ ابْنَتِي بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِي فَقَالَ زِيَادٌ لِجُلَسَائِهِ الَّذِينَ عِنْدَهُ مَا تَقُولُونَ فِيمَا يَقُولُ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ قَالُوا نِكَاحُهُ بَاطِلٌ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ مَا تَقُولُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَلَمَّا سَأَلَنِي أَقْبَلْتُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ أَجَابُوهُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ أَ لَيْسَ فِيمَا تَرْوُونَ أَنْتُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ يَسْتَعْدِيهِ عَلَى أَبِيهِ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) أَنْتَ وَ مَالُكَ لِأَبِيكَ قَالُوا بَلَى فَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ فَكَيْفَ يَكُونُ هَذَا وَ هُوَ وَ مَالُهُ لِأَبِيهِ وَ لَا يَجُوزُ نِكَاحُهُ [عَلَيْهِ] قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِقَوْلِهِمْ وَ تَرَكَ قَوْلِي .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Abu Al Magra’a, from Ubeyd Bin Zurara, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘One day I<sup>asws</sup> was in the presence of Ziyad Bin Ubeydullah Al-Harisy, when a man came over claiming upon his father, saying, ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Keep the commander well. My father got my daughter married off without my permission. So Ziyad said to his gathered ones who were with him, ‘What are you all saying regarding what this man is saying?’ They said, ‘His giving in marriage is invalid’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Then he turned towards me<sup>asws</sup>, so he said, ‘What are you<sup>asws</sup> saying, O Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>?’ So when he asked me<sup>asws</sup>, I<sup>asws</sup> turned towards the ones who had answered him, so I<sup>asws</sup> said to them: ‘Is it not among what you are reporting from Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>, that a man came over to him<sup>saww</sup> claiming upon his father, in a situation similar to this, so Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said to him: ‘You and your wealth are for your father?’ They said, ‘Yes’. So I<sup>asws</sup> said to them: ‘So how can this be and he as well as his wealth is for his father, and his (grand-father’s) marriage is not allowed upon him?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘But, he took to their words, and neglected my<sup>asws</sup> words’.
