It is narrated from Abu Bakr bin Abdur Rahman (may Allah be pleased with him) that the wife of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her), informed him that when she came to Madinah Munawwarah, she told the people: I am the daughter of Abu Umayyah bin Mughirah. The people thought she was lying and said: What a strange and astonishing lie this is! Until some people set out from there for Hajj, they said: Will you not write a letter to your family? So she wrote them a letter, then when they returned to Madinah, they confirmed her words (that she was indeed the daughter of Abu Umayyah), thus her status among the people increased further. Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) says: When I gave birth to my daughter Zainab, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me and proposed marriage to me. I said: A woman like me is not married; now there is no hope of children from me, and I am very jealous and I also have children. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I am older than you, as for jealousy, Allah will remove it, and as for children, that is up to Allah and His Messenger. Thus, he (peace and blessings be upon him) married her. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to come to Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) and would say: Where is Zanab? Until one day, Sayyiduna Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) came and took the girl, and he said: This girl is coming between the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her), because Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) used to be nursing her. After that, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came and asked: Where is Zanab, that is, Zainab? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came at a time when Qureibah bint Abi Umayyah was also visiting her sister. She said: Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) has taken the girl. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I will come to you at night. Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: I got up and took out some barley from a pot, extracted its kernel, and prepared food for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) spent the night, and when morning came, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You are honored and respected among your family; if you wish, I will spend seven nights with you, and if I spend seven nights with you, then I will spend seven nights with each of my wives.
