Book 16: The Book of Marriage

Chapter 2

Recommendation to the one who sees a woman and is attracted to her, to go to his wife or slave woman and have intercourse with her

باب نَدْبِ مَنْ رَأَى امْرَأَةً فَوَقَعَتْ فِي نَفْسِهِ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَ امْرَأَتَهُ أَوْ جَارِيَتَهُ فَيُوَاقِعَهَا

Sahih Muslim 1403c
وَحَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ قَالَ جَابِرٌ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏
"‏ إِذَا أَحَدُكُمْ أَعْجَبَتْهُ الْمَرْأَةُ فَوَقَعَتْ فِي قَلْبِهِ فَلْيَعْمِدْ إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فَلْيُوَاقِعْهَا فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يَرُدُّ مَا فِي نَفْسِهِ ‏"
Jabir heard Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) say:

When a woman fascinates any one of you and she captivates his heart, he should go to his wife and have an intercourse with her, for it would repel what he feels.
