أَخْبَرَنِي حَاجِبُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَنِ الْحَارِثِ بن عبد الرحمن،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُمَا سَأَلَا فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَمْرِهَا ؟ فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ طَلَّقَنِي زَوْجِي ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَانَ يَرْزُقُنِي طَعَامًا فِيهِ شَيْءٌ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ وَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ كَانَتْ لِي النَّفَقَةُ وَالسُّكْنَى لَأَطْلُبَنَّهَا وَلَا أَقْبَلُ هَذَا فَقَالَ الْوَكِيلُ:‏‏‏‏ لَيْسَ لَكِ سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةٌ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَيْسَ لَكِ سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاعْتَدِّي عِنْدَ فُلَانَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ وَكَانَ يَأْتِيهَا أَصْحَابُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اعْتَدِّي عِنْدَ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ أَعْمَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا حَلَلْتِ فَآذِنِينِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا حَلَلْتُ آذَنْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ وَمَنْ خَطَبَكِ ؟ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ غُلَامٌ مِنْ غِلْمَانِ قُرَيْشٍ لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ صَاحِبُ شَرٍّ لَا خَيْرَ فِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَكِنْ انْكِحِي أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَكَرِهْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهَا ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَنَكَحَتْهُ.

They asked Fatimah bint Qais رضی الله عنہا about her story and she said: My husband divorced me three times, and he used to provide me with food that was not good. She said: By Allah, if I were entitled to maintenance and accommodation I would demand them and I would not accept this. The deputy said: You are not entitled to accommodation or maintenance. She said: I came to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that, and he said: 'You are not entitled to accommodation nor maintenance; observe your 'Iddah in the house of so-and-so.' She said: 'His Companions used to go to her.' Then he said: 'Observe your 'Iddah in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum رضی اللہ عنہ, who is blind, and when your 'Iddah is over, let me know.' She said: When my 'Iddah was over, I let him know. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Who has proposed marriage to you?' I said: 'Mu'awiyah and another man from the Quraish.' He said: 'As for Mu'awiyah, he is a boy among the Quraish and does not have anything, and as for the other he is a bad man with no goodness in him. Rather you should marry Usamah bin Zaid.' She said: I did not like the idea. But he said that to her three times so she married him.
