Sahih Muslim 1480

Fatima bint Qays (radhiAllah anha) said: "I told him (i.e., the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)) that Mu’awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan and Abu Jahm had both proposed marriage to me, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘As for Abu Jahm, his stick never leaves his shoulder [meaning that he hits women]; as for Mu’awiyah, he is destitute and has no wealth. Marry Usamah ibn Zayd.’

But I did not like him.

Then he said: ‘Marry Usamah.’

So I married him, and Allah put much good in him, and I was happy."
