“Sa‘ad ibn Abu ‘Urwah narrated to me from al-Hassan al-Basri that the Messenger of Allah (saww) married a woman from the tribe of Banu ’Amir ibn Sa‘sa‘ah called Sana’ and she was the most beautiful among women of her time. When ‘A’isha and Hafsa looked at her they said that she will dominate them before the Messenger of Allah because of her beauty. They said to her, ‘The Messenger of Allah does not show any interest in you.’ When she went to the Messenger of Allah (saww) he (the Messenger of Allah) took her in his hand and she said, ‘I seek refuge with Allah.’ The hand of the Messenger of Allah moved away from her and he divorced her and sent her to her family. The Messenger of Allah (saww) married a woman from Kindah who was a daughter of Abu al-Jawn. When Ibrahim, son of the Messenger of Allah from Maria the Coptic died, she said, ‘Had he been a prophet, his son would not die.’ The Messenger of Allah (saww) sent her to her family before going to bed with her. When the Messenger of Allah passed away and Abu Bakr took charge of the affairs of the people; al-‘Amiriya and al-Kindah women who had proposed for marriage came to him. Abu Bakr and ‘Umar had a meeting and they said to the women, ‘You can choose the veil or sexual satisfaction.’ They chose sexual satisfaction and married but one of the men contracted leprosy and the other man became insane. ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaina has said, ‘I narrated this Hadith to Zurarah and al-Fudayl and they narrated it from Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), who has said, ‘Whatever Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, prohibited He is disobeyed in it so much so that they even married the wives of the Holy Prophet (saww) after him and he (the Imam) mentioned the two women, al-‘Amiriya and al-Kindiyah. Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), then said, ‘If you ask them about the case of a man who marries a woman then divorces her before going to bed with her if she is lawful for his son, they will say, ’No. It is not lawful.’ The Messenger of Allah (saww) is greater than their fathers in matters of unlawfulness in such case.'"
