حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْحُومٌ سَمِعْتُ ثَابِتًا أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ جَائَتْ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهِ نَفْسَهَا فَقَالَتْ هَلْ لَکَ حَاجَةٌ فِيَّ فَقَالَتْ ابْنَتُهُ مَا أَقَلَّ حَيَائَهَا فَقَالَ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْکِ عَرَضَتْ عَلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَفْسَهَا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6123
Narrated Thabit: that he heard Anas saying, "A woman came to the Prophet offering herself to him in marriage, saying, "Have you got any interest in me (i.e. would you like to marry me?)" Anas's daughter said, "How shameless that woman was!" On that Anas said, "She is better than you, for she presented herself to Allah's Apostle (for marriage).
