3- أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا (عَلَيْهِما السَّلام) قَالَ خَطَبَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أُمَّ هَانِئٍ بِنْتَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي مُصَابَةٌ فِي حَجْرِي أَيْتَامٌ وَلا يَصْلُحُ لَكَ إِلا امْرَأَةٌ فَارِغَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا رَكِبَ الإبِلَ مِثْلُ نِسَاءِ قُرَيْشٍ أَحْنَاهُ عَلَى وَلَدٍ وَلا أَرْعَى عَلَى زَوْجٍ فِي ذَاتِ يَدَيْهِ.
