Bayhaqi 13697 — Reports on marrying off an orphan girl

وَأَمَّا الْحَدِيثُ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْجَهْمِ، ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ، ثنا الْوَاقِدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبَةَ، ⦗١٩٧⦘ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ عُمَارَةَ بِنْتِ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ كَانَتْ بِمَكَّةَ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْنِي فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضِيَّةِ خَرَجَ بِهَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " تَزَوَّجْهَا "، فَقَالَ: ابْنَةُ أَخِي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ، فَزَوَّجَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَلَمَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، فَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: " هَلْ جُزِيتَ سَلَمَةَ "، هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ ضَعِيفٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ صَغِيرَةً وَلِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَابِ النِّكَاحِ مَا لَيْسَ لِغَيْرِهِ وَكَانَ أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَبِذَلِكَ تَوَلَّى تَزْوِيجَهَا دُونَ عَمِّهَا الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِنْ كَانَ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Umarah bint Hamzah bin Abd al-Muttalib was in Makkah, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came for the Umrah of al-Qada'. Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) brought her out and said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): Marry her. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "She is the daughter of my foster brother." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) married her to Salamah bin Abi Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "Have I repaid Salamah (well)?"
This chain is weak, and it does not state that she was young. In matters of marriage the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had what others do not, and he was closer to the believers than their own selves; on that basis he took charge of her marriage instead of her paternal uncle al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib, if he did so. And Allah knows best.
