Salam alaikum
Quoted from Fatwas of shaykh bin Baz (rahimuhullah), part 26, p 366:
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and upon his family and Companions. I read the story copied from the book entitled “Al-Tarikh” written by Ibn Jarir Al-Tabary (may Allah be merciful with him) regardingAmir Al-Mu’minin (Commander of the Believers)`Umar ibn Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) which reads as follows: ”I followed him until he entered a house, and then he entered a room. I took permission to enter and I was given it. When I entered, I found him sitting on a mat and leaning on two pillows made of leather and stuffed with palm fibers. He gave me one of them to sit on. I saw a hall in which there was a curtain. He said, “O, Um Kulthum! Bring us lunch.” She brought him bread, oil and salt. He said, “O, Um Kulthum! Shall you come out and eat with us?” She said, “I hear the voice of a man with you.” He said, “Yes, and I do not think he is one of the residents of the country.” She said, “If you wanted me to sit with men, you would bring me clothes like those brought by Ibn Ja`far to his wife, by Al-Zubayr to his wife or by Talhah to his wife.” He said, Is it not enough for you to be said that Um Kulthum bint `Ali ibn Abu Talib and the wife of Amir Al-Mu’minin `Umar?” He said: “Come on, eat. If she had been satisfied, she would have made you better food than this.”
