ahmad:24565Abū al-Mughīrah > al-Awzāʿī > Abū ʿUbayd

[Machine] Aisha entered upon me, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , with a headache and I was sitting bent over. He said to me, "Are you suffering from a headache?" I replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah, and I think women were created only for evil." He said, "No, but it is something with which the women of the progeny of Adam are afflicted."

أحمد:٢٤٥٦٥حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ

عَائِشَةُ دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِسَرِفَ وَقَدْ نَفِسْتُ وَأَنَا مُنَكِّسَةٌ فَقَالَ لِي أَنَفِسْتِ؟ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَلَا أَحْسِبُ النِّسَاءَ خُلِقْنَ إِلَّا لِلشَّرِّ فَقَالَ لَا وَلَكِنَّهُ شَيْءٌ ابْتُلِيَ بِهِ نِسَاءُ بَنِي آدَمَ
