قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رَجُلٌ مِنْ مَوَالِيكَ يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَ قَدْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً قَدْ وَافَقَتْهُ وَ أَعْجَبَهُ بَعْضُ شَأْنِهَا وَ قَدْ كَانَ لَهَا زَوْجٌ فَطَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثاً عَلَى غَيْرِ السُّنَّةِ وَ قَدْ كَرِهَ أَنْ يُقْدِمَ عَلَى تَزْوِيجِهَا حَتَّى يَسْتَأْمِرَكَ فَتَكُونَ أَنْتَ تَأْمُرُهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) هُوَ الْفَرْجُ وَ أَمْرُ الْفَرْجِ شَدِيدٌ وَ مِنْهُ يَكُونُ الْوَلَدُ وَ نَحْنُ نَحْتَاطُ فَلَا يَتَزَوَّجْهَا .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al nazar Bin Suweyd, from Muhammad Bin Abu Hamza, from Shuayb Al Haddad who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man from your<sup>asws</sup> friend coveys the greetings and has intended to marry a woman whom he finds as compatible and some of her nature has fascinated him, but she used to have a husband, who has divorced her upon other than the Sunnah, and he dislikes to proceed upon marrying her until he gets instructions from you<sup>asws</sup>, so you<sup>asws</sup> would happen to have instructed him so’. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is the copulation, and the matter of the copulation is difficult, and from it the children occur, and we<sup>asws</sup> are cautious, therefore he should not marry her’.
