"عن أَبى جعفر: أَنَّ عمرَ بنَ الخطابِ خطب إلى على بن أَبى طالبٍ ابنتَه أُمَّ كُلثوم، فقال علىٌّ: أنا حَبَسْتُ بناتى على بنى جعفر، فقال عمر: أنكحنيها يا على فواللَّه ما على ظهرِ الأرض رجلٌ يرصُد من حسن صحابتها ما أرصُد، فقال على: قد فعلت، فجاء عُمر إلى مجلسِ المهاجرين بين القَبْر والمنبرِ، وكانوا يجلسون ثَمَّ: علىٌّ وعثمانُ، والزبيرُ، وطلحةُ، وعبد الرحمنِ بن عوفٍ، فإذا كان الشئ يأتى عمر من الآفاق جاءَهم فأخبرَهم ذلك واستشَارهم فيه، فجاء عمرُ فقال: رَفِّئُونِى، فَرَفَّأُوهُ، وقالوا: بمن يا أميرَ المؤمنين؟ قال: بِابْنَةِ على بنِ أَبى طالبٍ، ثُم أنْشَأَ يخبرُهم، فقال: إن النَّبى ﷺ قال: كلُّ سببٍ ونسبٍ منقطعٌ يومَ القيامةِ إلا سَبَبى ونَسَبِى، وكنت قد صَحِبتُه، فَأَحْبَبْتُ أن يكونَ هذا أيضًا".

"Abu Ja'far: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab proposed to 'Ali ibn Abi Talib for his daughter Umm Kulthum. 'Ali said: I have kept my daughters for the sons of Ja'far. 'Umar said: Marry her to me, O 'Ali, for by Allah, there is no man on the face of the earth who would watch over her good companionship as I would. 'Ali said: I have done so. 'Umar came to the gathering of the emigrants between the grave and the pulpit, where 'Ali, 'Uthman, al-Zubayr, Talhah, and 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf used to sit. Whenever a matter came to 'Umar from the regions, he would come to them, inform them of it, and consult them about it. 'Umar came and said: Congratulate me! So they congratulated him and said: For whom, O Commander of the Faithful? He said: For the daughter of 'Ali ibn Abi Talib. Then he began to inform them, saying: The Prophet ﷺ said: "Every cause and lineage will be cut off on the Day of Resurrection, except my cause and my lineage." I had been his companion, so I loved that this too would be (a connection)."
