Chapter: Maintenance and Residence for the Irrevocably Divorced Woman and Her Leaving for Necessity
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 7245 — Maintenance and Residence
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) بِنَحْوِهِ وَفِيهِ فَلَمَّا حَلَلْتُ خَطَبَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ وَأَبُو جَهْمِ بْنُ حُذَيْفَةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَعَائِلٌ لَا مَالَ لَهُ وَأَمَّا أَبُو جَهْمٍ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَضَعُ عَصَاهُ عَنْ عَاتِقِهِ أَيْنَ أَنْتُمْ مِنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَكَانَ أَهْلُهَا كَرِهُوا ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ لَا أَنْكِحُ إِلَّا الَّذِي دَعَانِي إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَكَحْتُهُ
(Second chain) A similar hadith is narrated, except that in this one it is stated: Sayyida Fatima says: When I completed my waiting period (‘iddah), Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abu Jahm bin Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) sent me proposals of marriage, but the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding these individuals: Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) is poor, he has no wealth, and Abu Jahm (may Allah be pleased with him) always carries a stick on his shoulder. Why don’t you marry Usama bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with them both)? The family of Sayyida Fatima did not like this, but Sayyida Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I will only marry the one whom the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has suggested for marriage, so I married Sayyiduna Usama (may Allah be pleased with him).
