حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَکْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِکِ بْنِ أَبِي بَکْرِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا تَزَوَّجَ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ أَقَامَ عِنْدَهَا ثَلَاثًا وَقَالَ لَيْسَ بِکِ عَلَی أَهْلِکِ هَوَانٌ إِنْ شِئْتِ سَبَّعْتُ لَکِ وَإِنْ سَبَّعْتُ لَکِ سَبَّعْتُ لِنِسَائِي
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1917
It was narrated from AIHarith from his father that when the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H married Umrn Salamah, he stayed with her for three days, then he said: "You are not insignificant in your husband's eyes. If you wish, I will stay with you for seven days, but then I will stay with my other wives for seven days too." (Sahih)
