حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ، مَالِكٍ قَالَ إِذَا تَزَوَّجَ الْبِكْرَ عَلَى الثَّيِّبِ أَقَامَ عِنْدَهَا سَبْعًا وَإِذَا تَزَوَّجَ الثَّيِّبَ عَلَى الْبِكْرِ أَقَامَ عِنْدَهَا ثَلاَثًا ‏.‏ قَالَ خَالِدٌ وَلَوْ قُلْتُ إِنَّهُ رَفَعَهُ لَصَدَقْتُ وَلَكِنَّهُ قَالَ السُّنَّةُ كَذَلِكَ ‏.‏

Anas b. Malik reported:When anyone who has already a wife marries virgin, he should stay with her for seven nights (and then turn to his other wife), but when anyone having a virgin with him (as his wife) marries a woman who has been previously married he should stay with her for three nights. Khalid (one of the narrators) said. If I were to say that it could be directly traced to the Prophet (ﷺ). I would have told the truth, but he (Hadrat Anas) said: Such is the tradition

Rapporté par Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه : Quand quelqu’un qui est déjà marié épouse une femme vierge, il doit rester avec elle pendant sept nuits avant de retourner auprès de son autre épouse. Mais si quelqu’un, déjà marié à une vierge, épouse une femme qui a déjà été mariée, il doit rester avec elle pendant trois nuits. Khalid (un des narrateurs) a dit : « Si je disais que cela vient directement du Prophète ﷺ, je dirais la vérité, mais Anas a dit : “Telle est la tradition.” »
