2001. Thâbit said: "We were sitting with Anas bin Mâlik, and a daughter of his was with him. Anas said: 'A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and offered herself to him. She said: "O Messenger of Allāh, do you have any need of me?"'" His daughter said: 'How little modesty she had!' He said: 'She was better than you, because she wanted (to marry) the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and she offered herself to him.'" (Sahih)
2001 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مَرْحُومُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، قَالَ: كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ وَعِنْدَهُ ابْنَةٌ لَهُ، فَقَالَ أَنَسٌ: جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَعَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَلْ لَكَ فِيَّ حَاجَةٌ؟ فَقَالَتِ ابْنَتُهُ: مَا أَقَلَّ حَيَاءَهَا، قَالَ: «هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكِ، رَغِبَتْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَعَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ»
