حَدَّثَنَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْمُزَنِيُّ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي جَمِيلُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ: صَحِبْتُ شَيْخًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، ذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ كَانَتْ لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ، يُقَالُ لَهُ كَعْبُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ أَوْ زَيْدُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، فَحَدَّثَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارٍ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا فَوَضَعَ ثَوْبَهُ وَقَعَدَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ، أَبْصَرَ بِكَشْحِهَا بَيَاضًا، فَانْحَازَ عَنِ الْفِرَاشِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «خُذِي عَلَيْكِ ثِيَابَكِ» وَلَمْ يَأْخُذْ مِمَّا آتَاهَا شَيْئًا
English translation
Kaʿb ibn Zayd, or Zayd ibn Kaʿb, al-Anṣārī (may Allah be pleased with him) reported, as narrated by Jamīl ibn Zayd, who said: I accompanied an elder of the Anṣār who mentioned that he had been a Companion, called Kaʿb ibn Zayd or Zayd ibn Kaʿb. He told me that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ﷺ married a woman from Banū Ghifār, and when he ﷺ went in to her, removed his garment, and sat upon the bed, he ﷺ noticed a whiteness on her side. He ﷺ then withdrew from the bed and said, “Put your garment back on,” and he ﷺ took back nothing of what he had given her [as dowry]. Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 261
