حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ فَذَكَرَ بَعْضَ حَدِيثِ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ قَالَ قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ فَأَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَمْتَحِنُ مَنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ بِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى { يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ عَلَى أَنْ لَا يُشْرِكْنَ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا وَلَا يَسْرِقْنَ وَلَا يَزْنِينَ وَلَا يَقْتُلْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ وَلَا يَأْتِينَ بِبُهْتَانٍ يَفْتَرِينَهُ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِنَّ وَأَرْجُلِهِنَّ وَلَا يَعْصِينَكَ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ فَبَايِعْهُنَّ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُنَّ اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ } قَالَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَمَنْ أَقَرَّ بِهَذَا الشَّرْطِ مِنْ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ قَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ بَايَعْتُكِ كَلَامًا وَلَا وَاللَّهِ مَا مَسَّتْ يَدُهُ يَدَ امْرَأَةٍ قَطُّ فِي الْمُبَايَعَةِ مَا بَايَعَهُنَّ إِلَّا بِقَوْلِهِ قَدْ بَايَعْتُكِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ.
English Translation
Ya'qub narrated to us: Ibn Akhi Ibn Shihab narrated to us, and he mentioned part of the account of al-Hudaybiya. Muhammad ibn Muslim said: Urwa ibn al-Zubayr informed me that Aisha, wife of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, informed him that the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, used to test the believing women who emigrated to him with this verse, by the words of God Most High: "O Prophet, when believing women come to you pledging allegiance to you that they will not associate anything with God, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor kill their children, nor bring forth a falsehood they invent between their hands and feet, nor disobey you in what is right, then accept their pledge and ask forgiveness for them from God; indeed God is Forgiving, Merciful." Urwa ibn al-Zubayr said: Aisha said: Whichever believing woman affirmed this condition, the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, would say to her, "I have accepted your pledge," verbally - and by God, his hand never touched the hand of any woman at all during the pledging; he never pledged with any of them except by his saying, "I have accepted your pledge on that."
