أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ بْنِ مُسَاوِرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِسَبْعِ سِنِينَ وَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ لِتِسْعِ سِنِينَ .
Muhammad ibn al-Nadr ibn Musawir reported to us; he said: Ja'far ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from Hisham ibn Urwah, from his father, from Aishah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) married me when I was seven years old and consummated the marriage with me when I was nine.
Translation notes
This source states seven years at marriage and nine at consummation; the preceding related report at offset 210 states six years at marriage.
قَالَتْ تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِسَبْعِ سِنِينَ وَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ لِتِسْعِ سِنِينَ .
This narration states seven years at marriage, while the immediately preceding related narration states six; the age of consummation is nine in both.
Should the difference between the two transmitted ages be preserved as a source variant?
