Biography
It was said that in the year 10 AH, Abu Umar bin Hafs divorced Fatima irrevocably\r\nwhen he was away from her on return from a trip to Yemen as his agent was\r\nsent to give her some barley, but she exasperated him. Learning of this Abu\r\nUmar replied, 'By God, you will have nothing form me!, and so the divorce.\r\nShe went to his family and asked them to provide her with lodging and\r\nmaintenance and they refused. Later, on reccomendation of the Prophet, she\r\nmarried Usama. Usama died in 54 AH and that Fatima never remarried, instead\r\nshe lived with her brother, Dahhak ibn Qays.
