The people of the Quraish tribe were worried about the Makhzumiya woman. They said. "Nobody dare speak to him (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ ) except Usama bin Zaid as he is the most beloved to Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

شَأْنُ الْمَخْزُومِيَّةِ فَقَالُوا مَنْ يَجْتَرِئُ عَلَيْهِ إِلاَّ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حِبُّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

Aisha said, "A woman from Bani Makhzumiya committed a theft and the people said, 'Who can intercede with the Prophet ﷺ for her?' So nobody dared speak to him (i.e. the Prophet) but Usama bin Zaid spoke to him. The Prophet said, 'If a reputable man amongst the children of Bani Israel committed a theft, they used to forgive him, but if a poor man committed a theft, they would cut his hand. But I would cut even the hand of Fatima (i.e. the daughter of the Prophet) if she committed a theft."  

عَنْ حَدِيثِ الْمَخْزُومِيَّةِ فَصَاحَ بِي قُلْتُ لِسُفْيَانَ فَلَمْ تَحْتَمِلْهُ عَنْ أَحَدٍ قَالَ وَجَدْتُهُ فِي كِتَابٍ كَانَ كَتَبَهُ أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ سَرَقَتْ فَقَالُوا مَنْ يُكَلِّمُ فِيهَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يَجْتَرِئْ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَهُ فَكَلَّمَهُ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانَ إِذَا سَرَقَ فِيهِمُ الشَّرِيفُ تَرَكُوهُ وَإِذَا سَرَقَ الضَّعِيفُ قَطَعُوهُ لَوْ كَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ لَقَطَعْتُ يَدَهَا  

One day Ibn ʿUmar, while in the Mosque, looked at a man who was dragging his clothes while walking in one of the corners of the Mosque He said, "See who is that. I wish he was near to me." Somebody then said (to Ibn ʿUmar), "Don't you know him, O Abu ʿAbdur-Rahman? He is Muhammad bin Usama." On that Ibn ʿUmar bowed his head and dug the earth with his hands and then, said, "If Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he would have loved him."  

انْظُرْ مَنْ هَذَا لَيْتَ هَذَا عِنْدِي قَالَ لَهُ إِنْسَانٌ أَمَا تَعْرِفُ هَذَا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ قَالَ فَطَأْطَأَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ رَأْسَهُ وَنَقَرَ بِيَدَيْهِ فِي الأَرْضِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْ رَآهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَحَبَّهُ  

That the Prophet ﷺ used to take him (i.e. Usama) and Al-Hassan (in his lap) and say: "O Allah! Love them, as I love them."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَأْخُذُهُ وَالْحَسَنَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ أَحِبَّهُمَا فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّهُمَا  

The freed slave of Usama bin Zaid said, "Al-Hajjaj bin Aiman bin Um Aiman and Aiman Ibn Um Aiman was Usama's brother from the maternal side, and he was one of the Ansar. He was seen by Ibn 'Umar not performing his bowing and prostrations in a perfect manner. So Ibn 'Umar told him to repeat his prayer.  

أَنَّ الْحَجَّاجَ بْنَ أَيْمَنَ ابْنِ أُمِّ أَيْمَنَ وَكَانَ أَيْمَنُ ابْنُ أُمِّ أَيْمَنَ أَخَا أُسَامَةَ لأُمِّهِ وَهْوَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَرَآهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَمْ يُتِمَّ رُكُوعَهُ وَلاَ سُجُودَهُ فَقَالَ أَعِدْ  

Harmala, the freed slave of Usama bin Zaid said that while he was in the company of 'Abdullah bin 'Umar, Al-Hajjaj bin Aiman came in and (while praying) he did not perform his bowing and prostrations properly. So Ibn 'Umar told him to repeat his prayer. When he went away, Ibn 'Umar asked me, "Who is he?" I said, "Al-Hajjaj bin Um Aiman." Ibn 'Umar said, "If Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he would have loved him." Then Ibn 'Umar mentioned the love of the Prophet ﷺ for the children of Um Aiman. Sulaiman said that Um Aiman was one of the nurses of the Prophet.  

أَنَّهُ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ إِذْ دَخَلَ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ فَلَمْ يُتِمَّ رُكُوعَهُ وَلاَ سُجُودَهُ فَقَالَ أَعِدْ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى قَالَ لِي ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَنْ هَذَا قُلْتُ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ ابْنِ أُمِّ أَيْمَنَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَوْ رَأَى هَذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَحَبَّهُ فَذَكَرَ حُبَّهُ وَمَا وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِي عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ وَكَانَتْ حَاضِنَةَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
