Sahih Muslim Book - 18, Hadith - 3712

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِى بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِى الْجَهْمِ بْنِ صُخَيْرٍ الْعَدَوِىِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ تَقُولُ إِنَّ زَوْجَهَا طَلَّقَهَا ثَلاَثًا فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- سُكْنَى وَلاَ نَفَقَةً قَالَتْ قَالَ لِى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « إِذَا حَلَلْتِ فَآذِنِينِى ». فَآذَنْتُهُ فَخَطَبَهَا مُعَاوِيَةُ وَأَبُو جَهْمٍ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَرَجُلٌ تَرِبٌ لاَ مَالَ لَهُ وَأَمَّا أَبُو جَهْمٍ فَرَجُلٌ ضَرَّابٌ لِلنِّسَاءِ وَلَكِنْ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ». فَقَالَتْ بِيَدِهَا هَكَذَا أُسَامَةُ أُسَامَةُ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « طَاعَةُ اللَّهِ وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِهِ خَيْرٌ لَكِ ». قَالَتْ فَتَزَوَّجْتُهُ فَاغْتَبَطْتُ.

It was narrated that Abu Bakr bin Abi Al-Jahm bin Sukhair Al-'Adawi said: "I heard Fatimah bint Qais say that her husband divorced her thrice, and the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) did not grant her any accommodation or maintenance. She said: 'The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to me: "When your 'Iddah is over, let me know." So she let him know, and Mu'awiyah, Abu Jahm and Usamah bin Zaid proposed to her. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "As for Mu'awiyah, he is a poor man who has no wealth. As for Abu Jahm, he is a man who beats women. But (choose) Usamah bin Zaid." She gestured with her hand like this, (as if expressing disapproval), saying said: "Usamah!? Usamah!?" But the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to her: "Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for you." She said: 'So I married him and I was envied."'
