This is the wife of Allah's Apostle ﷺ ; so when you lift her bier, do not shake her or disturb her, but be gentle, for Messenger of Allah ﷺ had nine wives, with eight of whom he shared his time, but to one of them, he did not allot a share. 'Ati said: The one to whom he did not allot a share of time was Safiyya, daughter of Huyayy b. Akhtab. (Using translation from Muslim 1465a)
حَضَرْنَا مَعَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ جَنَازَةَ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِسَرِفَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هَذِهِ زَوْجَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا رَفَعْتُمْ نَعْشَهَا فَلَا تُزَعْزِعُوا بِهَا وَلَا تُزَلْزِلُوا وَارْفُقُوا فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَقْسِمُ لِثَمَانٍ وَلَا يَقْسِمُ لِوَاحِدَةٍ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ الَّتِي لَا يَقْسِمُ لَهَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ حُيَيِّ بْنِ أَخْطَبَ
