[Machine] Ibn al-Munkadir heard Ummayyah bint Ruqayyah say, "I pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ regarding women. He guided us as much as we were able and made it easy for us. I said, 'Allah and His Messenger are more merciful to us than our own selves.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pledge allegiance to us.' He said, 'I do not shake hands with women. My words are for a woman are like my words for a hundred women.'"
سَمِعَ ابْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ أُمَيْمَةَ بِنْتَ رُقَيْقَةَ تَقُولُ بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نِسْوَةٍ فَلَقَّنَنَا فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُنَّ وَأَطَقْتُنَّ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَرْحَمُ بِنَا مِنْ أَنْفُسِنَا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بَايِعْنَا قَالَ إِنِّي لَا أُصَافِحُ النِّسَاءَ إِنَّمَا قَوْلِي لِامْرَأَةٍ قَوْلِي لِمِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ
