It is reported from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Zayd ibn Aslam, through his father and grandfather, that ʿUmar married her and set her dowry at forty thousand.

Abū ʿUmar Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr relates that ʿUmar said to ʿAlī, “Marry her to me, Abū al-Ḥasan, for I seek through her distinction what no one else seeks.” ʿAlī replied, “I shall send her to you; if you approve of her, she is your wife”—offering her young age as a pretext. So he sent her carrying a cloak and instructed her, “Say to him, ‘This is the cloak I told you about.’” She did so, and ʿUmar said, “Tell him, ‘I am satisfied—may Allah be pleased with you.’”

He then placed his hand on her shin and uncovered it. She protested, “Do you do this? Were you not the Commander of the Believers, I would have broken your nose!” She went back to her father and told him, saying, “You have sent me to a wicked old man!” He said, “My daughter, he is your husband.” ⦗1⦘

A similar version is transmitted by Ibn ʿUyaynah from ʿAmr ibn Dīnār, from Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī, as a mursal report. ⦗2⦘

Al-Zuhrī and others state that she bore ʿUmar a son named Zayd, and it is also said that she bore him Ruqayyah.

Ibn Isḥāq says that after ʿUmar’s death she married ʿAwn ibn Jaʿfar ibn Abī Ṭālib. My father told me that when ʿUmar died, al-Ḥasan and al-Ḥusayn visited her and said, “If you let your father dispose of your affair, he will marry you to one of his wards; but if you wish to secure great wealth for yourself, you will indeed obtain it.” ⦗3⦘
