When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to marry off one of his daughters (may Allah be pleased with her), he would go to her and say to her: "So-and-so (a man) has mentioned so-and-so (a woman)." If she spoke and disliked it, he would not marry her (to him), and if she remained silent, he would marry her (to him).
