Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) went to visit the sick Sayyiduna Qudamah bin Maz'un (may Allah be pleased with him). During this time, Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) received the good news of the birth of a daughter. Sayyiduna Qudamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Marry this girl to me." Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "What will you do with a little girl while your condition is such?" Sayyiduna Qudamah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: "If I remain alive, this daughter of Zubair will be my wife, and if I die, she will inherit from me." Thus, Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) married her to Sayyiduna Qudamah (may Allah be pleased with him).
