[Machine] Ali proposed to the daughter of Abu Jahal and promised marriage. Fatimah went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "People are talking that you do not get angry about your daughters and that Ali has proposed to the daughter of Abu Jahal." The Prophet ﷺ then stood up, praised Allah, and spoke well of Ali. He said, "Fatimah is a part of me, and I do not want anyone to cause her harm." He mentioned Abu Al-Aas ibn Al-Rabi'ah and praised him extensively. He said, "The daughter of the Prophet of Allah should not be married to the daughter of the enemy of Allah." Ali refused that.
أَنَّ عَلِيًّا خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ فَوَعَدَ بِالنِّكَاحِ فَأَتَتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ قَوْمَكَ يَتَحَدَّثُونَ أَنَّكَ لَا تَغْضَبُ لِبَنَاتِكَ وَأَنَّ عَلِيًّا قَدْ خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنَّمَا فَاطِمَةُ بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَفْتِنُوهَا وَذَكَرَ أَبَا الْعَاصِ بْنَ الرَّبِيعِ فَأَكْثَرَ عَلَيْهِ الثَّنَاءَ وَقَالَ لَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ ابْنَةِ نَبِيِّ اللهِ وَبِنْتِ عَدُوِّ اللهِ فَرَفَضَ عَلِىٌّ ذَلِكَ
