Hadith 18587
١٨٥٨٧ - حدثنا يزيد بن هارون قال: أخبرنا حماد بن سلمة غن ثابت ⦗٥٨⦘ وإسماعيل (بن) (١) عبد اللَّه بن أبي طلحة أن أبا طلحة خطب أم سليم فقالت: يا أبا طلحة (ألست) (٢) تعلم أن (إلهك) (٣) (الذي) (٤) تعبد (خشبة) (٥) (نبتت) (٦) من الأرض، نجرها (حبشي) (٧) بني فلان قال: بلى! قالت: (فلا) (٨) تستحي من ذلك، فإنك إن أسلمتَ لم أرد منك صداقًا غيره، حتى أنظر قال: فذهب ثم جاء فقال: أشهد أن لا إله إلا اللَّه وأن محمدًا رسول اللَّه قالت: يا أنس! قم فزوج أبا طلحة، فزوجها (٩).
Hazrat Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) and Ismail bin Abdullah bin Abi Talha (may Allah have mercy on him) narrate that Hazrat Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) sent a marriage proposal to Hazrat Umm Sulaim (may Allah be pleased with her). She said, "O Abu Talha! Do you not know that the idols you worship are nothing but a piece of wood that grows from the earth, and such-and-such Abyssinian grew it?" Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "Indeed, that is the truth." Hazrat Umm Sulaim (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "Then why do you not feel ashamed of this? Accept Islam; your acceptance of Islam will be my dowry." Hazrat Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) asked for some time to think, then he came and said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad (ﷺ) is the Messenger of Allah." Hazrat Umm Sulaim (may Allah be pleased with her) said to her son Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), "O Anas, get up and perform my marriage with Abu Talha." So he performed the marriage.
