Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1187 — the Prophet ﷺ asked her: Who is proposing
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ قَالَ : نَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ . عَنْ بُسْرَةَ بِنْتِ صَفْوَانَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- سَأَلَهَا : مَنْ يَخْطُبُ أُمَّ كُلْثُومِ بِنْتَ عُقْبَةَ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : فُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ . فَقَالَ : I " أَنْكِحُوا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ ، فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ خِيَارِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، وَمِنْ خِيَارِهِمْ مَنْ كَانَ مِثْلَهُ . I " لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ بُسْرَةَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Busrah bint Safwan (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked her: "Who is proposing marriage to Sayyidah Umm Kulthum bint Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with her)?" She said: "So-and-so and so-and-so, and Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Marry her to Abd al-Rahman, for he is among the best of the Muslims, and the best of them are those who are like him."
This hadith is not narrated from Sayyidah Busrah (may Allah be pleased with her) except with this chain, and Abd al-Rahman bin Humayd bin Abd al-Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it.
