سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ لَهُ ثَلَاثُ بَنَاتٍ أَبْكَارٍ فَزَوَّجَ وَاحِدَةً مِنْهُنَّ رَجُلًا وَ لَمْ يُسَمِّ الَّتِي زَوَّجَ لِلزَّوْجِ وَ لَا لِلشُّهُودِ وَ قَدْ كَانَ الزَّوْجُ فَرَضَ لَهَا صَدَاقَهَا فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ إِدْخَالُهَا عَلَى الزَّوْجِ بَلَغَ الرَّجُلَ أَنَّهَا الْكُبْرَى مِنَ الثَّلَاثَةِ فَقَالَ الزَّوْجُ لِأَبِيهَا إِنَّمَا تَزَوَّجْتُ مِنْكَ الصُّغْرَى مِنْ بَنَاتِكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) إِنْ كَانَ الزَّوْجُ رَآهُنَّ كُلَّهُنَّ وَ لَمْ يُسَمَّ لَهُ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ فَالْقَوْلُ فِي ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ الْأَبِ وَ عَلَى الْأَبِ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَدْفَعَ إِلَى الزَّوْجِ الْجَارِيَةَ الَّتِي كَانَ نَوَى أَنْ يُزَوِّجَهَا إِيَّاهُ عِنْدَ عُقْدَةِ النِّكَاحِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ الزَّوْجُ لَمْ يَرَهُنَّ كُلَّهُنَّ وَ لَمْ يُسَمِّ وَاحِدَةً عِنْدَ عُقْدَةِ النِّكَاحِ فَالنِّكَاحُ بَاطِلٌ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether from Ibn Mahboub, from Jameel Bin Salih, from Abu Ubeyda who said, ‘I asked Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> about a man who had three virgin daughter for him. So he got one of them married to a man and did not specify which one he married to the husband, nor to the witnesses, and the husband had necessitated her dower for her. So when it reached the time upon entering her upon the husband, it reached the man that she is the eldest one from the three. So the husband said to her father, ‘But rather, I married from you the youngest one of your daughters’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If it was such that the husband had seen all of them and did not specify one of them, so the (final) word regarding that would be the word of the father, and it would be upon the father regarding what is between him and Allah<sup>azwj</sup> that he hands over to the husband, the girl which he had intended to get married to him during the tie of marriage; and if it was such that the husband had not seen all of them and had not specified one during the marriage tie, so the marriage is invalidated’.
