Sunan an-Nasa'i 3371
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ تَزَوَّجَ عَقِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي جُشَمٍ فَقِيلَ لَهُ بِالرِّفَاءِ وَالْبَنِينِ . قَالَ قُولُوا كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " بَارَكَ اللَّهُ فِيكُمْ وَبَارَكَ لَكُمْ " .
Amr ibn Ali and Muhammad ibn Abd al-A'la reported to us; they said: Khalid narrated to us, from Ash'ath, from al-Hasan, who said: Aqil ibn Abi Talib married a woman from Banu Jusham. People said to him, ‘May you prosper and have sons.’ He said, ‘Say what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “May Allah bless you and bless you abundantly.”’
Translation notes
Aqil redirects the customary congratulatory phrase to the blessing taught by the Messenger of Allah.
