(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : تَأَيَّمَتْ حَفْصَةُ بِنْتُ عُمَرَ مِنْ خُنَيْسٍ أَوْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ حُذَافَةَ شَكَّ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا ، فَتُوُفِّيَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، قَالَ : فَلَقِيتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ ، فَعَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَفْصَةَ ، فَقُلْتُ : " إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْكَحْتُكَ حَفْصَةَ ، قَالَ : سَأَنْظُرُ فِي ذَلِكَ ، فَلَبِثْتُ لَيَالِيَ ، فَلَقِيَنِي ، فَقَالَ : مَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَ يَوْمِي هَذَا ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْكَحْتُكَ حَفْصَةَ ابْنَةَ عُمَرَ ، فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَيَّ شَيْئًا ، فَكُنْتُ أَوْجَدَ عَلَيْهِ مِنِّي عَلَى عُثْمَانَ ، فَلَبِثْتُ لَيَالِيَ ، فَخَطَبَهَا إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَنْكَحْتُهَا إِيَّاهُ ، فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : لَعَلَّكَ وَجَدْتَ عَلَيَّ حِينَ عَرَضْتَ عَلَيَّ حَفْصَةَ فَلَمْ أَرْجِعْ إِلَيْكَ شَيْئًا ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أَرْجِعَ إِلَيْكَ شَيْئًا حِينَ عَرَضْتَهَا عَلَيَّ ، إِلَّا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُهَا ، وَلَمْ أَكُنْ لِأُفْشِيَ سِرَّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَلَوْ تَرَكَهَا لَنَكَحْتُهَا " .
Sayyiduna Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) says that my daughter Hafsa’s husband, Khunais bin Hudhafah or Hudhaifah, passed away and she became a widow. He was a Badri companion and died in Madinah Munawwarah. I met Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and presented to him the proposal of marrying my daughter. He asked me for some time to think and after a few days said that at present he had no intention of getting married. After that, I met Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and said the same to him, that if you wish, I can marry my daughter Hafsa to you, but he did not give me any answer. I was more upset with him than with Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). After a few days, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a marriage proposal for Hafsa for himself, so I married Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her) to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Coincidentally, I met Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) and he said, “Perhaps you were upset that you offered Hafsa to me and I did not give you any answer?” I said, “Yes, that is so.” He said, “The fact is, when you made this offer to me, there was nothing preventing me from accepting it, but I had heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mention Hafsa. I did not want to disclose the secret of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had left her, I would certainly have married her.”
