The apostle could think fast. See how he handled the following two situations with his quick thinking.
Hamza's daughter was ugly and Mo didn't want her.
Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 37:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
It was said to the Prophet, "Won't you marry the daughter of Hamza?" He said, "She is my foster niece (brother's daughter). "
But Abu's pretty daughter 6 year old Ayesha was also his foster niece by the same token. But Mo really wanted her.
Muslim Book 62, Number 18:
Narrated 'Ursa:
The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."
