It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Usaid and Sayyiduna Sahl (may Allah be pleased with them), they say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and his companions passed by us. We set out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) until we reached a garden called Al-Shawt. There we reached two more gardens and sat between them. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Sit down. And he went ahead. The lady Junayyah was brought to the house of Ummaymah bint Nu’man bin Sharahil, and with her was her nurse. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) went to her and said: Offer yourself to me (in marriage). She said: Can a queen offer herself to her subjects? At the same time, she said: I seek refuge with Allah from you. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: You have sought refuge by mentioning the name of the One whose refuge alone is to be sought. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) came back to us and said: O Abu Usaid! Give her two white cotton garments and take her to her family. All the narrators except Abu Ahmad have said, instead of Junayyah, that a woman named Aminah from the tribe of Banu Jun was brought to the house of Ummaymah bint Nu’man.

Jameel bin Zaid says: I had the opportunity to sit in the company of an Ansari elder. He claimed that he had the honor of the companionship of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. His name was Ka'b bin Zaid or Zaid bin Ka'b. He narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, married a woman from the tribe of Banu Ghifar. When he entered upon her, he put his garment aside and sat on the bed. When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saw a white mark of vitiligo on her side, he moved away from the bed and said: "Put on your clothes." And the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did not take back anything he had given her.

It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Sharik (may Allah be pleased with her) that she was among those women who offered themselves to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

Sayyida Umm Fadl bint al-Harith narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saw Umm Habibah bint Abbas at an age when she had only recently been weaned. So he said: If this daughter of Abbas reaches maturity during my lifetime, I will surely marry her.
