It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that whenever a proposal of marriage came for one of the daughters of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) would come and sit by the curtain and say: "So-and-so is proposing." If she remained silent, her silence was taken as her consent; and if she disliked it (that match), she would strike the curtain (from the inside), and that act of hers was an expression of dislike.
No one narrated this hadith from Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) except Abd al-Aziz bin al-Husayn (may Allah have mercy on him), while Uthman bin Abd al-Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it.
