===========================
Narrated Jabir:
My father died and left behind seven or nine daughters, and I married a woman. The Prophet said:
“Did you get married, O Jabir?” I replied, “Yes.” He asked, “Is she a virgin or a matron?” I replied, “She is a matron.” He said, “Why didn’t you marry a virgin girl so that you might play with her and she with you (or, you might make her laugh and she make you laugh)?” I said, “My father died, leaving seven or nine girls (orphans) and I did not like to bring a young girl like them, so I married a woman who can look after them.” He said, “May Allah bestow His Blessing on you.”
{Volume 8, Book 75, Number 396 : Sahih Bukhari}
===========================
If only all men could see that this is such a good deed.
