It is narrated from Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When two (authorised) agents marry (a woman off in separate places), the first (whose marriage took place first) has the greater right." All these clear and distinct routes that I have mentioned for this text are sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Bukhari, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
