adab:1245

An old woman from Kufa, the grandmother of 'Ali ibn Ghurab, reported that Umm al-Muhajir said, "I was captured with some girls from Byzantium. 'Uthman offered us Islam, but only myself and one other girl accepted Islam. 'Uthman said, 'Go and circumcise them and purify them.'"

الأدب المفرد:١٢٤٥حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنَا عَجُوزٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ جَدَّةُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ غُرَابٍ قَالَتْ حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ الْمُهَاجِرِ

قَالَتْ سُبِيتُ فِي جَوَارِي مِنَ الرُّومِ فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْنَا عُثْمَانُ الإِسْلاَمَ فَلَمْ يُسْلِمْ مِنَّا غَيْرِي وَغَيْرُ أُخْرَى فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ اذْهَبُوا فَاخْفِضُوهُمَا وَطَهِّرُوهُمَا
