Musnad Abi Ya'la 2686 — the Prophet ﷺ proposed marriage to a woman
حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ بَهْرَامَ ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - خَطَبَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، يُقَالُ لَهَا : سَوْدَةُ ، فَقَالَ لَهَا : إِنَّ خَيْرَ نِسَاءٍ رَكِبْنَ أَعْجَازَ الْإِبِلِ نِسَاءُ قُرَيْشٍ ، أَحْنَاهُ عَلَى وَلَدٍ فِي صِغَرِهِ ، وَأَرْعَاهُ عَلَى بَعْلٍ فِي ذَاتِ يَدِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) proposed marriage to a woman of Quraysh who was called Sayyidah Sawdah (may Allah be pleased with her), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: "The best of all the women who ride on the backs of camels are the women of Quraysh: they are the most tender towards their children in childhood, and the best guardians of their husbands' wealth and belongings."
