Sahih al-Bukhari Book 64, Hadith 97
← Previous Hadith
When the Prophet (ﷺ) set out for (the battle of) Uhud, some of those who had gone out with him, returned.
The companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were divided into two groups. One group said, "We will fight them
(i.e. the enemy)," and the other group said, "We will not fight them." So there came the Divine
Revelation:-- '(O Muslims!) Then what is the matter within you that you are divided. Into two parties
about the hypocrites? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) Because of what they have earned.'
(4.88) On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "That is Taiba (i.e. the city of Medina) which clears one from one's
sins as the fire expels the impurities of silver."

"Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, "Have you got married O Jabir?" I replied, "Yes." He asked "What, a
virgin or a matron?" I replied, "Not a virgin but a matron." He said, "Why did you not marry a young
girl who would have fondled with you?" I replied, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! My father was martyred on the
day of Uhud and left nine (orphan) daughters who are my nine sisters; so I disliked to have another
young girl of their age, but (I sought) an (elderly) woman who could comb their hair and look after
them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You have done the right thing."
