أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْحُومٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً عَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَضَحِکَتْ ابْنَةُ أَنَسٍ فَقَالَتْ مَا کَانَ أَقَلَّ حَيَائَهَا فَقَالَ أَنَسٌ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْکِ عَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3258
It was narrated from Anas that a woman offered herself in marriage to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم. The daughter of Anas laughed and said: “How little was her modesty.” Anas said: “She was better than you; she offered herself in marriage to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم.” (Sahih).
