✧ Khawlah bt. Hakim b. Umayyah b. al-Awqas, the wife of Uthman b. Maz'un, and that was in Makkah: "O Messenger of Allah, will you not marry?" He said, "Whom?" She said, "If you wish, a virgin, and if you wish, a previously married woman." He said, "Who is the virgin?" She said, "The daughter of the most beloved of Allah's creation to you, Aishah bt. Abi Bakr." He said, "And who is the previously married woman?" She said, "Sawdah bt. Zam'ah; she has believed in you and followed you in what you are upon." He said, "Go and mention them both to me." So she came and entered the house of Abu Bakr and found Umm Ruman, the mother of Aishah, and said, "O Umm Ruman, what good and blessing has Allah brought upon you! The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent me to seek Aishah's hand for him." She said, "I wish you would wait for Abu Bakr, for he is coming." So Abu Bakr came and she said, "O Abu Bakr, what good and blessing has Allah brought upon you! The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent me to seek Aishah's hand for him." He said, "Is she suitable for him when she is only the daughter of his brother?" So he sent me back to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I mentioned that to him. He said, "Go back to him and say to him: You are my brother in Islam and I am your brother, and your daughter is suitable for me." So she went to Abu Bakr, and he said to Khawlah, "Call the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for me." He came, and he gave her in marriage to him. On that day I was a girl of six years."
