Hadith text
Narrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama:`Ali demanded the hand of the daughter of Abu Jahl. Fatima heard of this and went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "Your people think that you do not become angry for the sake of your daughters as `Ali is now going to marry the daughter of Abu Jahl. "On that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got up and after his recitation of Tashah-hud. I heard him saying, "Then after! I married one of my daughters to Abu Al-`As bin Al- Rabi` (the husband of Zainab, the daughter of the Prophet (ﷺ) ) before Islam and he proved truthful in whatever he said to me. No doubt, Fatima is a part of me, I hate to see her being troubled. By Allah, the daughter of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and the daughter of Allah's Enemy cannot be the wives of one man." So `Ali gave up that engagement. 'Al-Miswar further said: I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) talking and he mentioned a son-in-law of his belonging to the tribe of Bani `Abd-Shams. He highly praised him concerning that relationship and said (whenever) he spoke to me, he spoke the truth, and whenever he promised me, he fulfilled his promise
Al-Miswar bin Makhrama bataate hain: Ali ne Abu Jahl ki beti se shaadi ka prastaav rakha. Fatima ne yeh suna aur Allah ke Rasool ke paas gaee aur kaha, "Aapki qaum sochti hai ke aap apni betiyon ke liye naraaj nahi hote, kyunke Ali ab Abu Jahl ki beti se shaadi karna chahte hain." Isspar Allah ke Rasool khade hue aur apna Tashah-hud padhne ke baad, maine unhe kehte suna, "Iske baad! Maine apni ek beti ki shaadi Abu Al-As bin Ar-Rabi (yaani Zainab, Nabi ki beti ke shohar) se ki thi Islam se pahle, aur woh mujhse jo bhi kahte the usme sachche nikle. Koi shak nahi, Fatima mera ek hissa hai, mujhe napasand hai use pareshaan hote dekhna. Allah ki qasam, Allah ke Rasool ki beti aur Allah ke dushman ki beti ek shaks ki biwiyaan nahi ban sakti." Isliye Ali ne woh mangni chhod di. Al-Miswar ne aage kaha: Maine Nabi ko baat karte suna aur unhone apne ek daamad ka zikar kiya jo Bani Abd-Shams qabile se the. Unhone unke baare mein bahut taarif ki us rishte mein, kehte huye, "(Jab bhi) unhone mujhse baat ki, unhone sach kaha, aur jab bhi unhone mujhse waada kiya, unhone apna waada poora kiya."
