Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah: My father died and left seven or nine girls and I married a matron. Allah's Messenger ﷺ said to me, "O Jabir! Have you married?" I said, "Yes". He said, "A virgin or a matron?" I replied, "A matron". he said, "Why not a virgin, so that you might play with her and she with you, and you might amuse her and she amuse you". I said, " 'Abdullah (my father) died and left girls, and I dislike to marry a girl like them, so I married a lady (matron) so that she may look after them". On that he said, "May Allah bless you," or "That is good".
