Hadith Narrated By Thalaba bin Abi Malik

Umar bin Al-Khattab (RA) distributed some garments amongst the women of Al-Madina. One good garment remained, and one of those present with him said, "O chief of the believers! Give this garment to your wife, the (grand) daughter of Allah's Messenger (SAW)." They meant Umm Kulthum, the daughter of Ali. Umar said, Umm Salit has more right (to have it)." Umm Salit was amongst those Ansari women who had given the Baia (pledge) to Allah's Messenger (SAW).' Umar said, "She (i.e. Umm Salit) used to carry the water skins to provide us water on the day of Uhud."
