2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn Yahya from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy from abu 'Abdillah (AS) who said
"If a man marries a maid while she is still young, he should not have sex with her until she reaches the age of nine years."
2- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَالَ إِذَا تَزَوَّجَ الرَّجُلُ الْجَارِيَةَ وَهِيَ صَغِيرَةٌ فَلا يَدْخُلْ بِهَا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ لَهَا تِسْعُ سِنِينَ.
