adab:420

Umm ad-Darda' reported that a man came up to her and said, "A man has said bad things about you in the presence of 'Abdu'l-Malik.' She said, "We are suspected of something which we did not do. How often we have been praised for what we did not do!"

الأدب المفرد:٤٢٠حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا رُدَيْحُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ الدَّرْدَاءِ

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَاهَا فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَجُلاً نَالَ مِنْكِ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ فَقَالَتْ إِنْ نُؤْبَنَ بِمَا لَيْسَ فِينَا فَطَالَمَا زُكِّينَا بِمَا لَيْسَ فِينَا
