Description:
al-Tabaqat al-Kubra by Ibn Saad, Vol. 8, pg. 338 - 339

أخبرنا أنس بن عياض الليثي عن جعفر بن محمد عن أبيه أن عمر بن الخطاب خطب إلى علي بن أبي طالب ابنته أم كلثوم، فقال علي: إنما حبست بناتي على بني جعفر. فقال عمر: أنكحنيها يا علي فوالله ما على ظهر الأرض رجل يرصد من حسن صحابتها ما أرصد. فقال علي: قد فعلت. فجاء عمر إلى مجلس المهاجرين بين القبر والمنبر، وكانوا يجلسون ثمّ عليّ وعثمان والزبير وطلحة وعبد الرحمن بن عوف فإذا كان الشيء يأتي عمر من الآفاق جاءهم فأخبرهم ذلك واستشارهم فيه. فجاء عمر فقال: رفّئوني. فرفّؤوه وقالوا: بمن يا أمير المؤمنين؟ قال: بابنة علي بن أبي طالب. ثم أنشأ يخبرهم فقال: إن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: «كل نسب وسبب منقطع يوم القيامة إلا نسبي وسببي»، وكنت قد صحبته فأحببت أن يكون هذا أيضاً.

Anas ibn Iyad al-Laythi reported from Ja'far ibn Muhammad, from his father, that Umar ibn al-Khattab proposed to Ali ibn Abi Talib for his daughter, Umm Kulthum. Ali said, “I have reserved my daughters for the sons of Ja'far.” Umar replied, “Marry her to me, Ali, for by Allah, there is no man on the face of the earth who will look after her as I will.” Ali said, “I have done so.” Umar then went to the gathering of the Muhajirun between the grave and the pulpit, where they used to sit, including Ali, Uthman, Zubair, Talha, and Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf.

Whenever Umar received news from various regions, he would come to them, inform them, and consult them about it. Umar came and said, “Congratulate me.” They congratulated him and asked, “With whom, O Commander of the Faithful?” He replied, “With the daughter of Ali ibn Abi Talib.” Then he began to explain to them, saying, “The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, ‘Every lineage and connection will be severed on the Day of Judgment except my lineage and my connection.’ I had been close to him, so I wanted this as well.”
