Hassan bin Thabit asked the permission of Messenger of Allah ﷺ to lampoon the pagans (in verse). Allah's Apostle said, "What about my fore-fathers (ancestry)?' Hassan said (to the Prophet) "I will take you out of them as a hair is taken out of dough." Narrated Hisham bin ʿUrwa that his father said, "I called Hassan with bad names in front of ʿAisha." She said, "Don't call him with bad names because he used to defend Messenger of Allah ﷺ (against the pagans).

I started abusing Hassan in front of ʿAisha. She said, "Do not abuse him as he used to defend Allah's Apostle (against the infidels). ʿAisha added, "Once Hassan took the permission from the Prophet ﷺ to say poetic verses against the infidels. On that the Prophet ﷺ said, 'How will you exclude my forefathers (from that)? Hassan replied, 'I will take you out of them as one takes a hair out of the dough." Hisham's father added, "I abused Hassan as he was one of those who spoke against ʿAisha."

Once Hassan bin Thabit asked the permission of the Prophet ﷺ to lampoon (i.e. compose satirical poetry defaming) the infidels. The Prophet ﷺ said, "What about the fact that I have common descent with them?" Hassan replied, "I shall take you out of them as a hair is taken out of dough." Narrated ʿUrwa: I started abusing Hassan in front of ʿAisha, whereupon she said. "Don't abuse him, for he used to defend the Prophet (with his poetry).
