2. Muhammad Ibn Abi ‘Umayr has narrated from Hisham ibn Salim who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When he (Umar) proposed marriage with ‘Umm Kulthum, ’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), said, ‘She is yet just a child.’ He (Umar) has said that he saw al-‘Abbas and asked, ‘What is wrong with me, is there something wrong with me?’ He (al-‘Abbas) asked, ‘What is the matter?’ He replied saying, ‘I proposed marriage before the son of your brother for his daughter but he rejected my proposal. I swear by Allah, I will shut down Zamzam, leave no honor for you without being destroyed; I will prove him guilty of theft through two witnesses and cut off his right hand.’ Al-‘Abbas went to him (the Imam) and informed him of what he (Umar) had said and asked him (the Imam) to authorize him to settle the matter, so he (the Imam) agreed.’”
