حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ: عَكَّافُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ التَّمِيمِيُّ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "يَا عَكَّافُ، هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ زَوْجَةٍ؟ " قَالَ: لَا. قَالَ: "وَلَا جَارِيَةٍ؟ " قَالَ: وَلَا جَارِيَةَ. قَالَ: "وَأَنْتَ مُوسِرٌ بِخَيْرٍ؟ " قَالَ: وَأَنَا مُوسِرٌ بِخَيْرٍ. قَالَ: "أَنْتَ إِذًا مِنْ إِخْوَانِ الشَّيَاطِينِ، لَوْ كُنْتَ فِي النَّصَارَى كُنْتَ مِنْ رُهْبَانِهِمْ، إِنَّ سُنَّتَنَا النِّكَاحُ، شِرَارُكُمْ عُزَّابُكُمْ، وَأَرَاذِلُ مَوْتَاكُمْ عُزَّابُكُمْ، أَبِالشَّيْطَانِ تَمَرَّسُونَ مَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ مِنْ سِلَاحٍ أَبْلَغُ فِي الصَّالِحِينَ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلَّا الْمُتَزَوِّجُونَ، أُولَئِكَ الْمُطَهَّرُونَ الْمُبَرَّؤُونَ مِنَ الْخَنَا، وَيْحَكَ يَا عَكَّافُ، إِنَّهُنَّ صَوَاحِبُ أَيُّوبَ وَدَاوُدَ، وَيُوسُفَ وَكُرْسُفَ ". فَقَالَ لَهُ بِشْرُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ: وَمَنْ كُرْسُفُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: "رَجُلٌ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللهَ بِسَاحِلٍ مِنْ سَوَاحِلِ الْبَحْرِ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةِ عَامٍ، يَصُومُ النَّهَارَ، وَيَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ كَفَرَ بِاللهِ الْعَظِيمِ فِي سَبَبِ امْرَأَةٍ عَشِقَهَا، وَتَرَكَ مَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ عِبَادَةِ اللهِ، ثُمَّ اسْتَدْرَكَ اللهُ بِبَعْضِ مَا كَانَ مِنْهُ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ، وَيْحَكَ يَا عَكَّافُ تَزَوَّجْ، وَإِلَّا فَأَنْتَ مِنَ الْمُذَبْذَبِينَ " قَالَ: زَوِّجْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ. قَالَ: "قَدْ زَوَّجْتُكَ كَرِيمَةَ بِنْتَ كُلْثُومٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ " (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

It is narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a man named "Ukaf bin Bishr Tamimi" came to the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked him, "Ukaf! Do you have a wife?" Ukaf replied, "No." The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked, "Any slave woman?" He said, "No." The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked, "Are you wealthy?" He replied, "Yes, Alhamdulillah!" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Then you are a brother of Satan. If you were among the Christians, you would be counted among their monks, but our way is marriage. The worst among you are the unmarried, and those who die unmarried die the most disgraceful death. Do you fight against Satan? For Satan has no weapon more effective against righteous men than women, except for those who are married. These are the ones who are pure and free from filth. Ukaf, these women were companions of Ayub (peace be upon him), Dawood (peace be upon him), Yusuf (peace be upon him), and Krisaf (peace be upon him)." Bishr bin Atiyyah asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Who was Krisaf?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "He was a man who worshipped Allah on a seashore for three hundred years, fasting during the day and standing in prayer at night. But then he fell into the trap of love for a woman and ended up committing disbelief in Allah and abandoned the worship of Allah. Later, Allah helped him and accepted his repentance. O Ukaf! Get married, otherwise you will remain in confusion." He said, "O Messenger of Allah! Please arrange my marriage yourself." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "I have married you to Karima bint Kulthum Himyari."
