حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَعْلَى الْأَسْلَمِيُّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

جَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَعَدَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ مُنَاصَحَتِي وَقِدَمِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَإِنِّي وَإِنِّي قَالَ «وَمَا ذَلِكَ؟» قَالَ تُزَوِّجْنِي فَاطِمَةَ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ أَوْ قَالَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَرَجَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ هَلَكْتُ وَأَهْلَكْتَ قَالَ وَمَا ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ خَطَبْتُ فَاطِمَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي فَقَالَ مَكَانَكَ حَتَّى آتِيَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَطْلُبُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي طَلَبْتَ فَأَتَى عُمَرُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَعَدَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ مُنَاصَحَتِي وَقِدَمِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَإِنِّي وَإِنِّي قَالَ «وَمَا ذَاكَ؟» قَالَ تُزَوِّجْنِي فَاطِمَةَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَرَجَعَ عُمَرُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ يَنْتَظِرُ أَمْرَ اللهِ فِيهَا انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى عَلِيٍّ حَتَّى نَأْمُرَهُ أَنْ يَطْلُبَ مِثْلَ الَّذِي طَلَبْنَا قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَأَتَيَانِي وَأَنَا فِي سَبِيلٍ فَقَالَا بِنْتُ عَمِّكَ تُخْطَبُ فَنَبَّهَانِي لِأَمْرٍ فَقُمْتُ أَجُرُّ رِدَائِي طَرَفٌ عَلَى عَاتِقِي وَطَرَفٌ آخَرُ فِي الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَعَدْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ قِدَمِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَمُنَاصَحَتِي وَإِنِّي وَإِنِّي قَالَ «وَمَا ذَاكَ يَا عَلِيُّ؟» قُلْتُ تُزَوِّجْنِي فَاطِمَةَ قَالَ «وَمَا عِنْدَكَ» قُلْتُ فَرَسِي وَبُدْنِي يَعْنِي دِرْعِي قَالَ «أَمَّا فَرَسُكَ فَلَا بُدَّ لَكَ مِنْهُ وَأَمَّا دِرْعُكَ فَبِعْهَا» فَبِعْتُهَا بِأَرْبَعَ مِائَةٍ وَثَمَانِينَ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَوَضَعْتُهَا فِي حِجْرِهِ فَقَبَضَ مِنْهَا قَبْضَةً فَقَالَ يَا بِلَالُ ابْغِنَا بِهَا طِيبًا ومُرْهُمْ أَنْ يُجَهِّزُوهَا فَجَعَلَ لَهَا سَرِيرًا مُشَرَّطًا بِالشَّرَيطِ وَوِسَادَةً مِنْ أَدَمٍ حَشْوُهَا لِيفٌ وَمَلَأَ الْبَيْتَ كَثِيبًا يَعْنِي رَمَلًا وَقَالَ «إِذَا أَتَتْكَ فَلَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى آتِيَكَ» فَجَاءَتْ مَعَ أُمِّ أَيْمَنَ فَقَعَدَتْ فِي جَانِبٍ الْبَيْتِ وَأَنَا فِي جَانِبٍ فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «هَهُنَا أَخِي» فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ أَخُوكَ قَدْ زَوَّجْتَهُ بِنْتَكَ فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لِفَاطِمَةَ «ائْتِينِي بِمَاءٍ» فَقَامَتْ إِلَى قَعْبٍ فِي الْبَيْتِ فَجَعَلَتْ فِيهِ مَاءً فَأَتَتْهُ بِهِ فَمَجَّ فِيهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا «قَوْمِي» فَنَضَحَ بَيْنَ ثَدْيَيْهَا وَعَلَى رَأْسِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ أُعِيذُهَا بِكَ وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا «أَدْبِرِي» فَأَدْبَرَتْ فَنَضَحَ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أُعِيذُهَا بِكَ وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «ائْتِينِي بِمَاءٍ» فَعَمِلْتُ الَّذِي يُرِيدُهُ فَمَلَأْتُ الْقَعْبَ مَاءً فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ فَأَخَذَ مِنْهُ بِفِيهِ ثُمَّ مَجَّهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ صَبَّ عَلَى رَأْسِي وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أُعِيذُهُ وَذُرِّيَّتَهُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «ادْخُلْ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ بِسْمِ اللهِ وَالْبَرَكَةِ»

✧ Abu Bakr came to the Prophet ﷺ and sat before him. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, you know my sincerity and my precedence in Islam, and I, and I..." He said, "And what is that?" He said, "Marry Fatimah to me." He was silent about it, or he turned away from him. Abu Bakr returned to Umar and said, "I am ruined and have ruined you." He said, "And what is that?" He said, "I proposed Fatimah to the Prophet ﷺ and he turned away from me." He said, "Stay where you are until I go to the Prophet ﷺ and seek the like of what you sought." Umar came to the Prophet ﷺ and sat before him. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, you know my sincerity and my precedence in Islam, and I, and I..." He said, "And what is that?" He said, "Marry Fatimah to me." He turned away from him. Umar returned to Abu Bakr and said, "He is awaiting Allah's command concerning her. Come with us to Ali so that we may order him to seek the like of what we sought." Ali said, "They came to me while I was on a path. They said, 'Your cousin's daughter is being proposed to.' They alerted me to a matter, so I got up dragging my cloak, one end on my shoulder and the other on the ground, until I came to the Prophet ﷺ and sat before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you know my precedence in Islam and my sincerity, and I, and I...' He said, 'And what is that, O Ali?' I said, 'Marry Fatimah to me.' He said, 'What do you have?' I said, 'My horse and my body armor.' He said, 'As for your horse, you cannot do without it. As for your armor, sell it.' So I sold it for four hundred and eighty, and brought it to the Prophet ﷺ and placed it in his lap. He took a handful from it and said, 'O Bilal, buy us perfume with it and order them to prepare her.' He made for her a bed carved with straps and a leather cushion stuffed with palm fiber, and filled the house with a heap, meaning sand. He said, 'When she comes to you, do not do anything until I come to you.' She came with Umm Ayman and sat on one side of the house while I was on the other side. The Prophet ﷺ came and said, 'Here is my brother.' Umm Ayman said, 'Your brother whom you have married to your daughter.' The Prophet ﷺ entered and said to Fatimah, 'Bring me water.' She went to a bowl in the house, put water in it, and brought it to him. He rinsed his mouth into it. Then he said to her, 'Stand up,' and he sprinkled between her breasts and on her head. Then he said, 'O Allah, I seek refuge for her and her descendants with You from the accursed Satan.' Then he said to her, 'Turn around,' so she turned around, and he sprinkled between her shoulders. Then he said, 'O Allah, I seek refuge for her and her descendants with You from the accursed Satan.' Then he said, 'Bring me water.' I did what he wanted: I filled the bowl with water and brought it to him. He took some with his mouth, then spat it into it, then poured it on my head and before me. Then he said, 'O Allah, I seek refuge for him and his descendants with You from the accursed Satan.' Then he said, 'Enter upon your family with the name of Allah and blessing.'
