حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثنا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حَاطِبٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ
عَائِشَةُ لَمَّا مَاتَتْ خَدِيجَةُ جَاءَتْ خَوْلَةُ بِنْتُ حَكِيمٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ أَلَا تَزَوَّجُ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ؟» قَالَتْ إِنْ شِئْتَ بِكْرًا وَإِنْ شِئْتَ ثَيِّبًا قَالَ «وَمَنِ الْبِكْرُ؟ وَمَنِ الثَّيِّبُ؟» قَالَتْ أَمَّا الْبِكْرُ فَابْنَةُ أَحَبِّ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَأَمَّا الثَّيِّبُ فَسَوْدَةُ بِنْتُ زَمْعَةَ
