[Machine] He approached me and spoke to me about something while he was in a state of irritation. I replied to him and he became angry and said, "You are like the back of my mother." Then he went out to his people's gathering and returned to me and tried to please me with himself, but I refused. He insisted, so I pushed him forcefully and overpowered him with what a weak man is overpowered by a woman. She said, so I said, "By the one in whose hand is the soul of Khawla, it will not reach me until Allah judges between me and you." So I went to the Prophet ﷺ to complain to him about what I had encountered. He said, "Fear Allah and treat your husband and your cousin well." She said, "I did not stop until Allah revealed: 'Indeed, Allah has heard the statement of her that disputes with you [Prophet] concerning her husband.'" (Quran 58:1) until the expiation was ordered. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Tell him to free a slave." She said, "By Allah, he does not possess a slave." He said, "Then let him fast for two consecutive months." She said, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, he is an old man and cannot fast.'" He said, "Then let him feed sixty poor people." She said, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, he does not have anything to feed them with.'" He said, "Yes, indeed, we will help him with a pile of dates. A mound of dates can accommodate thirty was." She said, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, can I help him with another mound of dates?'" He said, "You have done well in advising him. Let him give charity then. Allah knows best."
