سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2093
Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet ﷺ said: An orphan virgin girl should be consulted about herself; if she says nothing that indicates her permission, but if she refuses, the authority of the guardian cannot be exercised against her will. The full information rest with the tradition narrated by Yazid. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been transmitted in a similar way by Abu Khalid Sulaiman bin Hayyan and Muadh bin Muadh on the authority of Muhammad bin Amr.
