عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيِّ:
أَنَّ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أُنْكِحَتْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَنَكَحَ عَلِيٌّ وَعُثْمَانُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ. وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْتِي خِدْرَ الْمَخْطُوبَةِ مِنْ بَنَاتِهِ، فَيَقُولُ: " إِنَّ فُلَانًا يَخْطُبُ فُلَانَةَ "؛ فَإِنْ طَعَنَتْ بِيَدِهَا فِي خِدْرِهَا فَذَلِكَ نَهْيٌ مِنْهَا، فَلَا يُنْكِحُهَا. وَإِنْ هِيَ لَمْ تَطْعَنْ بِيَدِهَا فِي خِدْرِهَا أَنْكَحَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، وَسَكَتَ
Translation
✧ Zaynab bt. the Prophet ﷺ was married off in the pre-Islamic era, while Ali and Uthman married in Islam. The Prophet ﷺ used to come to the curtained litter of the daughter whose hand was being sought and say: “So-and-so is asking for the hand of So-and-so.” If she struck the curtain of her litter with her hand, that was a refusal from her, and he would not marry her off. But if she did not strike the curtain of her litter with her hand, the Prophet ﷺ would marry her off, and she would remain silent.
