Once Hassan bin Thabit asked the permission of the Prophet ﷺ to lampoon (i.e. compose satirical poetry defaming) the infidels. The Prophet ﷺ said, "What about the fact that I have common descent with them?" Hassan replied, "I shall take you out of them as a hair is taken out of dough." Narrated ʿUrwa: I started abusing Hassan in front of ʿAisha, whereupon she said. "Don't abuse him, for he used to defend the Prophet (with his poetry).
اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي هِجَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ قَالَ كَيْفَ بِنَسَبِي فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ لأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ وَعَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ ذَهَبْتُ أَسُبُّ حَسَّانَ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ لاَ تَسُبُّهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُنَافِحُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
