It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a marriage proposal to Sayyidah Maymunah bint Harith (may Allah be pleased with her). She entrusted her matter to Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), and he married her to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
