(24) باب فِي الاِسْتِئْمَارِ
The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted through a different chain of narrators by Muhammad bin 'Amr. This version adds "If she weeps or keeps silence". The narrator added the word "weeps".Abu Dawud said:
The word "weeps" is not guarded. This is a misunderstanding of the tradition on the part of the narrator Ibn Idris or Muhammad b. al-'Ata.Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been narrated by Abu 'Amr Dhakwan on the authority of 'Aishah who said: A virgin is ashamed of speaking, Messenger of Allah. He said: Her silence is her acceptance.
