أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَيْدَانَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ طُفَيْلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي رِبْعِيُّ بْنُ حِرَاشٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ
أَنَّهُ خَطَبَ إِلَى عُمَرَ ابْنَتَهُ فَرَدَّهُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَنْ رَاحَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ قَالَ «يَا عُمَرُ أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى خَتَنٍ خَيْرٍ لَكَ مِنْ عُثْمَانَ وَأَدُلُّ عُثْمَانَ عَلَى خَيْرٍ لَهُ مِنْكَ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «زَوِّجْنِي ابْنَتَكَ وَأُزَوِّجُ عُثْمَانَ ابْنَتِي»

✧ that he proposed to Umar for his daughter, and he rejected him. That reached the Prophet ﷺ, and when Umar came to him, he said: "O Umar, shall I not direct you to a son-in-law better for you than Uthman, and direct Uthman to one better for him than you?" He said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah. He said: "Marry me to your daughter, and I will marry Uthman to my daughter."
