Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet (๏ทบ) abominated the combination of paternal and maternal aunts and the combination of two maternal aunts and two paternal aunts in marriage
Ibn Shihab said โโUrwah bin Al Zubair asked Aโishah , wife of the Prophet(๏ทบ) about the Qurโanic verse โAnd if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphans, marry of the women, who seem good to you.โ She said โO my nephew, this means the female orphan who is under the protection of her guardian and she holds a share in his property and her property and beauty attracts him; so her guardian intends to marry her without doing justice to her in respect of her dower and he gives her the same amount of dower as others give her. They (i.e., the guardians) were prohibited to marry them except that they do justice to them and pay them their maximum customary dower and they were asked to marry women other than them (i.e., the orphans) who seem good to them. โUrwah reported that Aโishah said โThe people then consulted the Apostle of Allaah(๏ทบ) about women after revelation of this verse. Thereupon Allaah the Exalted sent down the verse โThey consult thee concerning women. Say Allaah giveth you decree concerning them and the scripture which hath been recited unto you(giveth decree) concerning female orphans unto whom you give not that which is ordained for them though you desire to marry them. โ She said โThe mention made by Allaah about the Scripture recited to them refers to the former verse in which Allaah has said โAnd if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphans, marry of the women, who seem good to you.โ Aโishah said โThe pronouncement of Allaah , the Exalted in the latter verse โthough you desire to marry themโ means the disinterest of one of you in marrying a female orphan who was under his protection, but she said little property and beauty. So they were prohibited to marry them for their interest in the property and beauty of the female orphans due to their disinterest in themselves except that they do justice )to them). The narrator Yunus said โRabiโah said explain the Qurโanic verse โAnd if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphansโ means โLeave them if you fear (that you will not do justice to them), for I have made four women lawful for you.โ

โAli bin al-Hussain said that when they returned to Madeenah from Yazid bin Muโawiyah the place of massacre of Al Hussain bin Ali(may Allaah be pleased with him) Al Miswar bin Makhramah met them and said โtell me if you have any need for me. I said to him โNoโ. He then said Will you not give me the sword of the Apostle of Allaah(๏ทบ)? I fear the people may not take it from you by force. (He said) By Allaah if you give it to me no one can take it from me so long as I am alive. Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allaah be pleased with him) asked for the hand of Abu Jahlโs daughter in marriage after the marriage with Fathima. I heard the Apostle of Allaah(๏ทบ) say while he was addressing the people about this matter on the pulpit and I was mature in those days. Fathima is from me and I am not afraid that she will be tried in respect of her religion. He then mentioned his other son-in-law who belonged to Banu โAbd Shams. He admired him immensely for his relationship with him and extolled him well. He said โHe talked to me and talked truly and he made promise with me and fulfilled it. I do not make lawful what Is unlawful and unlawful what is lawful. But, by Allaah the daughter of the Apostle of Allaah(๏ทบ) and the daughter of the enemy of Allaah can never be combined together
