Explanation of the Book of Marriage-06

The Shaykh : He said: "And from Uthmay (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

A pilgrim may not marry and give someone in marriage in the sacred state(while wearing ihram).

لا ينكح المحرم ولا ينكِح

Sunan Abi Dawud 1841Sahih (Al-Albani)

Muslim narrated it, and in a narration from him:

Nor does he propose marriage

ولا يخطب

And Ibn Hibban added:

And he does not propose on behalf of another

ولا يخطب عليه

From Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), he said:

The Prophet married Maimunah when he was in Ihram.

تزوج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ميمونة وهو محرم

Sunan an-Nasa'i 2837Sahih (Darussalam)

Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
And Muslim narrated from Maimunah herself (may Allah be pleased with her):

The Prophet (ﷺ) married her when he was not in the state of Ihram.

أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم تزوجها وهو حلال

Bulugh al-Maram 8:31

".
This hadith, or rather these two hadiths, are regarding the ruling on a person in the state of ihram marrying and a woman in the state of ihram being married off. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: meaning he does not marry. This includes both the woman and the man, so it is not permissible for a woman to be married off, and it is not permissible for a man to marry. This is because if a person marries while in the state of ihram, he is in one of two states: either he hastens and enters into his wife, and this leads to the invalidation of the ritual, and Allah the Exalted said: .
Or his heart remains attached to his wife, and this spoils his devotion to his ritual. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited it. Likewise, meaning he does not marry off another person. This applies to the guardian (wali). If the guardian is in the state of ihram, he does not marry off his ward, even if she is permissible to marry, and even if the husband who marries her is not in the state of ihram.
And in a narration from him: He does not propose, meaning he does not approach a person to propose to his ward, his daughter or his sister. The wisdom behind this is the attachment of the heart and its preoccupation with this proposal.
And his saying: means: if the woman is in the state of ihram, she is not proposed to. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited the marriage contract and its means and avenues. The means and avenues are the proposal and the marriage contract.
