Sahih BukhariHadith Number 4259
وَزَادَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، وَأَبَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، وَمُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ تَزَوَّجَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَيْمُونَةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ.
Ibn 'Abbas Narrated from:
The Prophet married Maimuna during the `Umrat-al-Qada' (i.e. the `Umra performed in lieu of the `Umra which the Prophet (ﷺ) could not perform because the pagans, prevented him to perform that `Umra).

Summary of Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4259
This Maimuna during Umrat al-Qada hadith is a short added report from Ibn Abbas. He said that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم married Maimuna during Umrat al-Qada, the Umra performed in place of the Umra that had been prevented earlier. The hadith does not add details about the full wedding scene, the contract wording, or later events. It gives the timing: during Umrat al-Qada. For people searching for the Prophet married Maimuna hadith, this narration helps connect the marriage to that Umra. The safest explanation is to keep the focus on what the text says: the marriage of Maimuna is linked here with the compensated Umra after the earlier prevention.
What we learn from this hadith
- The report places Maimuna's marriage during Umrat al-Qada.
- Umrat al-Qada is described as the Umra made after the earlier prevention.
- Short narrations should be explained without adding details not found in the text.
