عَنْ سُفْيَانَ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، سَمِعْتُ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِذَا أَحْلَلْتِ فَآذِنِينِي)). فَآذَنْتُهُ فَخَطَبَهَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَأَبُو الْجَهْمِ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَرَجُلٌ تَرِبٌ لَا مَالَ لَهُ، وَأَمَّا أَبُو الْجَهْمِ فَرَجُلٌ ضَرَّابٌ لِلنِّسَاءِ وَلَكِنْ أُسَامَةَ)). قَالَ: فَقَالَتْ بِيَدِهَا هَكَذَا أُسَامَةُ تَقُولُ لَمْ تُرِدْهُ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((طَاعَةُ اللَّهِ وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِهِ خَيْرٌ لَكِ)). فَتَزَوَّجَتْهُ فَاغْتَبَطَتْهُ.
It is narrated from Sayyida Fatima bint Qais (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: When you complete your waiting period (‘iddah), inform me. So I informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him that Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan, Sayyiduna Abu Jahm, and Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with them) had sent me proposals of marriage. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Muawiyah is a poor man, he has no wealth, and Abu Jahm is a man who beats women a lot, but Usama, he is suitable. I gestured with my hand that not Usama, I do not want him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Obedience to Allah and His Messenger is better for you. So I married Usama, and I was envied.
