Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 19801 — from her husband Sayyiduna Abu Salamah

حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ الْحَلَبِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ زَوْجِهَا أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يُصَابُ بِمُصِيبَةٍ فَيَقُولُ: إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ، اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَحْتَسِبُ مُصِيبَتِي عِنْدَكَ، اللهُمَّ أَبْدِلْنِي بِهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا، إِلَّا أَبْدَلَهُ اللهُ بِهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا "، فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ: إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ، اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَحْتَسِبُ مُصِيبَتِي فِي أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عِنْدَكَ، اللهُمَّ أَبْدِلْنِي بِهِ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ خَيْرٍ مِنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَطَبَنِي، فَقُلْتُ: أَنَا مُصْبِيَةٌ، وَأَنَا غَيُورٌ، وَأَنَا كَبِيرَةُ السِّنِّ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَمَّا كِبَرُ السِّنِّ فَأَنَا أَكْبَرُ مِنْكِ، وَأَمَّا الْغَيْرَةُ فَأَنَا أَدْعُو اللهَ أَنْ يُذْهِبَهَا عَنْكِ، وَأَمَّا الْعِيَالُ فَإِلَى اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ» ، فَأَمَرَ عُمَرُ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ فَزَوَّجَنِي إِيَّاهُ
Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated from her husband Sayyiduna Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "There is no one among the Muslims who is struck by a calamity and says: 'Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un (We belong to Allah and to Him we return). O Allah, I seek the reward for my calamity with You. O Allah, give me in exchange for it something better than it', except that Allah gives him in exchange for it something better than it." Then, when Sayyiduna Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) died, Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un (We belong to Allah and to Him we return). O Allah, I seek the reward for my calamity concerning Abu Salamah with You. O Allah, give me in exchange for him someone better than him. (She said:) Then I began saying to myself: Who could be better than Abu Salamah? Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came and proposed marriage to me. I said: I am a woman with children, I am jealous, and I am advanced in age. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "As for age, I am older than you. As for jealousy, I will pray to Allah to remove it from you. As for the children, they are the responsibility of Allah and His Messenger." So Umar bin Abi Salamah gave the order and married me to him (peace and blessings be upon him).
