Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the hadith of Fatimah bint Qays, he says: Is this a case of proposing marriage to a woman who has already been proposed to?
Answer:
No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the faults of the two men. He mentioned the faults of the two men to her because she consulted him, and the one who is consulted must clarify what he knows. So the Messenger mentioned the faults of the two men to her, then he ordered her to marry Usamah, Usamah ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him), the beloved of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the beloved of my beloved. Yes.
