Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: When your period of 'Idda is over, inform me. So I informed him. (By that time) Mu'awiya, Abu Jahm and Usama b. Zaid had given her the proposal of marriage. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: So far as Mu'awiya is concerned, he is a poor man without any property. So far as Abu Jahm is concerned, he is a great beater of women, but Usama b. Zaid... She pointed with her hand (that she did not approve of the idea of marrying) Usama. But Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon himn) said: Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for thee. She said: So I married him, and I became an object of envy.  

مسلم:١٤٨٠p – وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ بْنِ صُخَيْرٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ قَالَ

[Machine] Bint Qais says that her husband divorced her three times and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not grant her a place to stay or provide for her. She said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "If you want, I can give you permission to remarry." So Muawiyah, Abu Jahlm, and Usamah bin Zaid proposed to her. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "As for Muawiyah, he is a poor man who has no wealth. And as for Abu Jahlm, he is a man who beats women. But as for Usamah, she said, extending her hand this way and that, "this is Usamah, this is Usamah." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her, "Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for you." She said, "So I married him and I was delighted with him."
