Narrated Maymunah, daughter of Kardam

I went out along with my father during the Hajj of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). My father drew near to him while he was upon a she-camel of his, so he stopped for him and listened to him. He had with him a whip like the whip of the schoolteachers, and I heard the Bedouins and the people saying, "Make way! Make way!" Then my father drew near to him and took hold of his foot, submitting to him, and he stopped by him and listened to him. He said: "I attended the army of Athran"—Ibn al-Muthanna said: "The army of Gathran"—and Tariq ibn al-Muraqqa' said: "Who will give me a lance in exchange for my reward?" I said: "And what is its reward?" He replied: "I will marry him to the first daughter born to me who becomes mine." So I gave him my lance, then I remained away from him until I knew that a girl had been born to him and she had reached maturity. Then I came to him and said to him: "Send my wife to me." But he swore that he would not do so until I gave her a new dower different from that which had been between me and him, and I swore that I would not give any dower other than that which I had already given. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "How is the woman today?" He said: "She has become qatir (old/aged)." He said: "I think you should leave her." She said: That troubled me, and I looked at the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). When he saw that from me, he said: "You will not commit a sin, nor will your companion commit a sin."
