A group of three men came to the houses of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) asking how the Prophet (ﷺ) worshipped (Allâh), and when they were informed about that, they considered their worship insufficient and said, "Where are we from the Prophet (ﷺ) as his past and future sins have been forgiven." Then one of them said, "I will offer the (prayer) throughout the night forever." The other said, "I will observe Șaum (fast) throughout the year and will not break my Saum (fast)." The third said, "I will keep away from the women and will not marry forever. Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) came to them and said, "Are you the same people who said so-and-so? By Allâh, I am more submissive to Allâh and more afraid of Him than you; yet I observe Saum (fast) and also do not observe Saum (fast), I do offer Salât (prayer) and also do sleep and I also marry women. So he who does not follow my As-Sunna (legal ways) in religion, is not from me (not one of my followers) ". [7:1-O.B]

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not allow Uthmân bin Maz'ûn to keep away from marrying, and if he had allowed him, we would have gotten ourselves castrated. [1] [7:11-O.B]

I said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! I am a young man and I am afraid that I may commit illegal sexual intercourse and I cannot afford to marry." He kept silent, and then I repeated my question once again, but he kept silent. I said the same (for the third time) and he remained silent. Then I repeated my question (for the fourth time), and only then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Huraira ! The pen has dried after writing what you are going to confront. [1] So (it does not matter whether you) get yourself castrated or not, [2] [7:13 (B)-O.B]

I said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! Suppose you landed in a valley where there is a tree of which something has been eaten and then you found trees of which nothing has been eaten, of which tree would you let your camel graze?" He said, "(I will let my camel graze) of the one of which nothing has been eaten before." (the subnarrator added: Āisha meant that Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) had not married a virgin besides herself.) [7:14-O.B]

The Prophet (ﷺ) asked Abu Bakr for (Aisha's) hand in marriage. Bakr said, But I am your brother." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You are my brother in Allâh's Religion and His Book, but she ('Aisha) is lawful for me to marry." " [7:18-0.B]
