[Machine] And some of them said, "There was only one dog, but they differed in its name." And some of them said, "No, we were all dogs, but each one of us had a different story than its owner." Al-Dhahabi did not mention this in his summary.
وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ إِلَّا كِلَابِيَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ وَإِنَّمَا اخْتُلِفَ فِي اسْمِهَا وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَلْ كُنَّ جَمِيعًا وَلَكِنْ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ قِصَّةً غَيْرَ قِصَّةِ صَاحِبَتِهَا سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ married al-Kilabiyyah. When she entered upon him and got closer to him, she said, "I seek refuge in Allah from you." He replied, "Indeed, you have sought refuge with a great Guardian, the one who has rights over his family." Al-Dhahabi remained silent about this in his summarization.
تَزَوَّجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْكِلَابِيَّةَ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَدَنَا مِنْهَا قَالَتْ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْكَ قَالَ «لَقَدْ عُذْتِ بِعَظِيمٍ الْحَقِي بِأَهْلِكِ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
"I asked Zuhri: 'Which of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ sought refuge with Allah from him? He said : "Urwah told me, (narrating) from 'Aishah, that when the daughter of Jawn entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he came close to her, she said: "I seek refuge with Allah from you." the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said : "You have sought refuge in the Almighty" go to your family." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2050)
سَأَلْتُ الزُّهْرِيَّ أَيُّ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اسْتَعَاذَتْ مِنْهُ؟ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ ابْنَةَ أَبِي الْجَوْنِ لَمَّا دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَدَنَا مِنْهَا قَالَتْ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْكَ قَالَ «لَقَدْ عُذْتِ بِعَظِيمٍ الْحَقِي بِأَهْلِكِ» حذفه الذهبي من التلخيص
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ married a woman named Kindah, who was unhappy and asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to return her to her people and allow her to leave him. He agreed and returned her to a man from the Ansar, known as Abu Usayd Al-Sa'idi. Ibnu Hajar Al-Asqalani did not mention this incident in his summarization.
وَنَكَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ امْرَأَةً مِنْ كِنْدَةَ وَهِيَ الشَّقِيَّةُ الَّتِي سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَرُدَّهَا إِلَى قَوْمِهَا وَأَنْ يُفَارِقَهَا فَفَعَلَ وَرَدَّهَا مَعَ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
[Machine] Nu'man ibn Abi Jawn al-Kindi arrived and he used to stay in the land of his father after the drinking water. So he came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as a Muslim and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ , would you allow me to marry the most beautiful woman among the Arabs? She used to be married to her cousin, but he passed away and she has desired you and proposed to you." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married her for twelve ounces of gold and a horse. Nu'man ibn Abi Jawn said, "May sorrow be upon you, O Messenger of Allah, send someone to take my wives to you, for I am leaving with your Messenger." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Abu Usayd As-Sa'di. When they arrived, she sat in her house and gave permission for him to enter. Abu Usayd said, "The wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ do not compete with men." Abu Usayd continued, "I sent a message to the Prophet ﷺ and he made things easy for me. He said there should be a curtain between you and any men you talk to, except for those who are forbidden to you." She accepted and Abu Usayd said, "I stayed with her for three days, and then I carried her on a camel to Medina and settled her in Bani Sa'dah. The women of the area came to her and welcomed her, and they praised her beauty." Abu Usayd said, "Then I returned to the Prophet ﷺ while he was in Bani 'Amr ibn 'Awf and told him what happened. He entered her room along with the women who wanted to see her because of her beauty. She said to him, 'You are from the kings. If you want to enjoy yourself with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , seek refuge from me, for you will be indulged by him, and he will desire you.'"
