Chapter on the Marriage of the Prophet Muhammad with Maymunah bint al-Harith
It was narrated to us by Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz and Abu Bakr Ahmad ibn al-Hasan al-Qadi who said: We were informed by Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub who said: We were told by Ahmad ibn Abd al-Jabbar who said: We were told by Yunus ibn Bukayr from Ibn Ishaq who said: We were told by Aban ibn Salih and Abdullah ibn Abi Najih from Ata and Mujahid from Ibn Abbas that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, married Maymunah bint al-Harith during his journey for Umrah in this year. Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib arranged the marriage. The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, stayed in Mecca for three days. Huwaytib ibn Abd al-Uzza ibn Abi Qays from a group of Quraysh, who had been tasked with expelling the Prophet from Mecca, approached him saying: "Your time is up, leave us." The Prophet responded: "If you let me, I will marry among you and prepare food for you which you could attend." They replied: "We don't need your food, leave us." So, he left and left Abu Rafi as a guardian over Maymunah until he brought her secretly to him, where the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, married her.

Hadith on the Marriage of the Prophet (PBUH) to Maymunah
Al-Susi said: [ (7) ] Abul-Abbas narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Ya'qub said: Abu Ja'far narrated to us, Muhammad ibn 'Awf ibn Sufyan at-Ta'i said: Abu al-Mughirah, 'Abd al-Quddus ibn al-Hajjaj, narrated to us, he said: Al-Awza'i narrated to us, he said: 'Ata' ibn Abi Rabah narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet (PBUH) married Maymunah while he was in the state of Ihram. Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib commented: Wasn't Ibn 'Abbas her nephew? Even though she was his maternal aunt, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) did not marry her until it was permissible. Reported by Al-Bukhari in Al-Sahih from 'Abd al-Quddus ibn al-Hajjaj [ (8) ].
Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah al-Hafiz said: 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Hamdan informed us that Ibn al-Marzuban al-Jallab bi Hamdan said: Abu Hatim al-Razi and Ibrahim ibn Nasr narrated to us, Hajjaj ibn Minhal (some versions mention Qatadah ibn al-Da'ama). Abu 'Ali ar-Rudhbari reported to us that Abu Bakr ibn Dasa narrated to us, he said: Abu Dawud narrated to us, he said: Musa ibn Isma'il narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salama reported from Habib ibn ash-Shahid, from Maymun ibn Mihran, from Yazid ibn al-Asamm, from Maymunah, she said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) married me while we were both Halal (i.e., not in the state of Ihram).
In another narration, Hajjaj mentioned being in the state of Ihram. Narrated also by Abu Fazarah from Yazid ibn al-Asamm from Maymunah, and Muslim also reported it in Sahih in the book of marriage, chapter on the prohibition of marrying someone in the state of Ihram, Hadith (48), p. 1032 [ (9) ].
[ (7) ] In a version by Hajjaj: "They said".
[ (8) ] Al-Bukhari reported in: Book 28 - Kitab al-Sayd, Chapter 12, the marriage of a person in the state of Ihram. Fath al-Bari (5:51).
[ (9) ] The hadith of Maymunah is also narrated by Muslim in: Book 16 - Kitab al-Nikah, Chapter 5, Prohibition of marrying a person in the state of Ihram, Hadith (48), p. 1032. Abu Dawud also reported this hadith in al-Hajj, the chapter on a person in the state of Ihram getting married [ (9) ].

Translation of Classical Arabic Text
Upon him be peace and we were in ihram in a state of consanguinity. At-Tirmidhi related in his book on Hajj, in the chapter on what is mentioned regarding permission in that situation, from Ishaq ibn Mansur, from Wahb ibn Jarir ibn Hazim, from his father like this, and he said: "strange." And more than one person narrated this hadith from Yazid ibn al-Asim as a Mursal. Az-Zaila'i mentioned in Nasab al-Rayah (3:173): This hadith was narrated by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad and Ibn Hibban in his Sahih, from Ibn Khuzaymah with his chain from Hammad ibn Zayd, At-Tirmidhi said: The hadith is good, and we do not know anyone who narrated it other than Hammad from Matr. Malik narrated it from Rabia from Suleiman from the Prophet as a Mursal, and Suleiman ibn Bilal narrated it from Rabia as a Mursal. The scholars disagreed about the marriage of the Prophet, may peace be upon him, to Maymunah, as some said: He married her legally, and the matter of her marriage, though forbidden, was made apparent and he then consummated the marriage on the way to Mecca. Maymunah died on the way to Mecca where he consummated the marriage with her, and she was buried there. Ibn Hibban said: There is no contradiction in these reports nor are Ibn Abbas and others mistaken, because he is more knowledgeable and understanding than others. But in my view, the meaning of his saying that “he married her while she was forbidden” is that he entered into the sanctuary, as we say: Anjad and Attham when one enters Najd and Tihamah regions. This is because the Prophet was determined to leave for Mecca intending to perform Umrah al-Qada', so he sent Abu Rafi and an Ansari man from Medina to Mecca to propose marriage to Maymunah for him. Then he went into Ihram. When he entered Mecca, he performed Tawaf, Sa'i, and undid his Ihram, then he married her. He remained in Mecca for three days, and when the people of Mecca asked him to leave, he left until he reached Sarif, where he built his house with her, and they were both lawful for each other.
Another hadith: At-Tabarani narrated in his Mu'jam that Ahmad ibn Amr al-Bazzar told us, Muhammad ibn Uthman ibn Mukhallad al-Wasiti from his father, from Salam Abu al-Mundhir, from Matr al-Warraq, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas that the Prophet, may peace be upon him, married Maymunah, and it was lawful. He also reported from Ibn Abbas through fifteen different chains that the Prophet, may peace be upon him, married her while she was forbidden, using the wording: "they were both forbidden," and he said: "This is the correct opinion." Another hadith: At-Tabarani narrated in his Mu'jam from Safiyyah bint Shaybah that the Prophet, may peace be upon him, married Maymunah, and it was lawful.
There is a contradictory hadith: Malik narrated in Al-Muwatta from Rabia ibn Abi Abd al-Rahman from Suleiman ibn Yassar, the client of Maymunah, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that the Messenger of Allah, may peace be upon him, sent Abu Rafi, his client, and a man from the Ansar to marry Maymunah, the daughter of Harith, and the Messenger of Allah, may peace be upon him, was in Medina before he left.

Explanation of Hadith
Sharh Muslim: Regarding the narration of Maimuna's response, he only married her lawfully as narrated by most of the companions, said the judge and others. They did not narrate that he married her unlawfully except Ibn Abbas alone. Maimuna and Abu Rafi'ah, and others narrated that he married her lawfully, they are more knowledgeable about the matter, and they are more accurate and frequent.
Interpretations and Narrations
The second point: he married her in the sanctuary which is lawful, though it is said for someone in the sanctuary that they are forbidden, even though it is lawful. The poet said: "They killed Ibn Afan, the Khalifa, in a forbidden area... He called out and there was no refuge for him, forsaken, in the sanctuary. The end." I found in Sahah al-Jawhari something contradictory to that as he said: "A man becomes forbidden when he enters the sacred month," and he recited the verse mentioned in accordance. Also, in Bukhari, it is mentioned that he married her while forbidden, yet built with her while lawful, this interpretation either supports or contradicts it.
Various Perspectives
Some of our companions lean towards the statement of Ibn Abbas that he was forbidden, i.e., in the sacred month, then he recited the verse. Later, it was narrated by Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi that through his chain of sources from Ishaq al-Mawsili, Harun al-Rashid asked al-Asma'i al-Kisa'i about the poet's saying: "They killed Ibn Afan, the Khalifa, in a forbidden area." Al-Kisa'i replied: "This does not mean that he was in a state of pilgrimage, nor in the sacred month, nor in the sanctuary." So, what is the meaning? The Kisa'i answered: "Everyone who does not do anything deserving punishment is forbidden, nothing is permissible for them."
Conclusion
Al-Nawawi concluded that the correct action among the fundamentalists is to give precedence to a statement when it contradicts actions because the statement extends to others while actions may be specific. The fourth point: it is among the characteristics of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Al-Tahawi in his book Al-Naskh wal-Mansukh mentioned handling the narration of Abu Rafi'ah as more important because he was the link between them, and he was directly related to the situation.
Quotes and References
Ibn al-Hummam in Al-Fath, p. 375, Vol 2, mentioned that Yazid ibn al-Asim married her in a lawful manner; the authenticity of this is not contested as the Six agreed on it. The hadith of Yazid was not recorded by al-Bukhari nor al-Nasa'i. Also, it does not match Ibn Abbas's memorization and precision. Hence, Amr ibn Dinar said to al-Zuhri: "How does Yazid ibn al-Asim know this and that, for a single thing he said, do you compare him to Ibn Abbas?!"

The Marriage of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to Maymunah
It is reported that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) married Maymunah, and it was legitimate. However, some disapproved of this marriage, forbidding looking at him after it became known that he married her almost at the end of his life. Tabarani narrated this incident, countering it by stating that Ibn Abbas reported from fifteen different chains that the Prophet married her while he was in a state of Ihram. This is considered the most authentic account. The scholars argued that being in a state of Ihram does not necessarily imply the same as being in a state of Haram, likening it to saying "Anjad" when referring to entering Najd or "Ahram" when entering the Haram region, signifying a distant place. This was further supported by Hadith in Bukhari, stating that the Prophet married her while in a state of Ihram but consummated the marriage lawfully.
Verifying the Authenticity of the Reports
The scholars conducted a comparative analysis between the Hadith of Ibn Abbas and those of Yazid ibn al-Asam, Aban ibn Uthman ibn Affan, concluding that Ibn Abbas' narration is stronger in terms of reliability. Therefore, it is reiterated that the Prophet married Maymunah while he was in a state of Ihram, but their marriage was lawful. The scholars' consensus supported by narrations from various trustworthy sources further solidifies the authenticity of these reports.
Views from Prominent Figures
The words of scholars like At-Tabari and narrations from Aisha, Saeed bin Jubayr, Ata, Tawus, Mujahid, Ikrima, and Jabir ibn Zayd all corroborate the argument that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) indeed married Maymunah while in a state of Ihram. Reports from Amr ibn Dinar, Ayyub al-Sakhtiyani, and Abdullah bin Abi Najeeh, also uphold the same view, further bolstering the authenticity of the marriage. Furthermore, it is mentioned that Aisha, too, alluded to the marriage of Maymunah and the Prophet while in a state of Ihram through narrations which are unimpeachable.
Additional Narrations and Scholarly Opinions
Abdullah ibn Masud, Ibn Abbas, and Anas are reported to have expressed that there is no objection to marrying while in a state of Ihram. Furthermore, Sheikh Hajratul-Islam Imam al-Asr, Mohammad Anwar al-Kashmiri, affirmed in his commentary on Sunan al-Tirmidhi that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) married Maymunah in the route to Makkah, despite being in Ihram, and then consummated the marriage lawfully. It is argued that he crossed the boundaries without Ihram intending to perform Hajj, as he married her between Makkah and the Valley of Halifah when the boundaries were temporarily lifted.
Authenticating the Reports
Additionally, the narration in Sahih al-Bukhari regarding the events at Hudaybiyyah where the Prophet performed Umrah further supports the legitimacy of marrying while in a state of Ihram, indicated by the actions of his Companions during that time.
