Honoring Women Through Their Children

SUMMARY: This hadith is about a woman named Fatima bint Qais who was married to Abu 'Amr b. Hafs and was honored by Allah because of her son, Ibn Zaid.

Abu Bakr b. Abu'l-Jahm reported: I and Abu Salama b 'Abd al-Rahman came to fatima bint Qais (Al! ah be pleased with her) and asked her (about divorce, etc). She said: I was the wife of Abu 'Amr b. Hafs b. al-Mughira, and he set out to join the battle of Najran. The rest of the hadith is the same, but he made this addition:" She said: I married him and Allah honored me on account of Ibn Zaid and Allah favoured me because of him".
وَحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، قَالَ دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ فَسَأَلْنَاهَا فَقَالَتْ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ فَخَرَجَ فِي غَزْوَةِ نَجْرَانَ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ وَزَادَ قَالَتْ فَتَزَوَّجْتُهُ فَشَرَّفَنِي اللَّهُ بِابْنِ زَيْدٍ وَكَرَّمَنِي اللَّهُ بِابْنِ زَيْدٍ
