[Machine] He, oh son of my sister, I have witnessed a strange thing regarding the greatness of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to be tied with a waistband, and he would be intensely affected by it, so we used to say, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took hold of the artery of his kidney, and we did not know what to say about the waistband." Then one day, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was tied tightly and was greatly affected by it to the point of losing consciousness. We were afraid for him, and people rushed to him, thinking that he had been struck on the same side. So we uncovered it and it was seen that he had been affected by the tightness. He said, "Did you think that Allah had given it control over me? Allah would never give it control over me. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, no one will remain in the house except him, except for my uncle." So we saw them removing it from themselves, one by one, until my uncle removed it. Aisha said, "Who was in the house on that day? Remember their qualities?" All the men had been affected by it as well, and the effect reached the wives of the Prophet ﷺ . They removed it from one wife to another, until it reached a woman among us. The son of Abu Zinad said, "I only know her to be Maymuna." He also said, "Some people said it was Umm Salama." She said, "By Allah, I was fasting." So we said, "How could we have left you, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had sworn not to untie it? So we removed it, by Allah, oh son of my sister, and she was indeed fasting."
