"Allah protected me with something that I heard from the Messenger of Allah [SAW]. When Chosroes died, he said: 'Whom have they appointed as his successor?' They said: 'His daughter.' He said: 'No people will ever prosper who entrust their leadership to a woman.'"  

عَصَمَنِي اللَّهُ بِشَىْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا هَلَكَ كِسْرَى قَالَ مَنِ اسْتَخْلَفُوا قَالُوا بِنْتَهُ قَالَ لَنْ يُفْلِحَ قَوْمٌ وَلَّوْا أَمْرَهُمُ امْرَأَةً  

"Allah restrained me with something that I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When Kisra was destroyed, he said: 'Who did they have to succeed him?' They said: 'His daughter.' So the Prophet ﷺ said: 'A people will never succeed who give their leadership to a woman.'" He said: "So when 'Aishah arrived - meaning in Al-Basrah - I remembered the saying of Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so Allah restrained me by it." Abu Eisa said: This Hadith is [Hasan] Sahih.  

عَصَمَنِي اللَّهُ بِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا هَلَكَ كِسْرَى قَالَ مَنِ اسْتَخْلَفُوا قَالُوا ابْنَتَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَنْ يُفْلِحَ قَوْمٌ وَلَّوْا أَمْرَهُمُ امْرَأَةً قَالَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَعْنِي الْبَصْرَةَ ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَصَمَنِي اللَّهُ بِهِ  

"Allah protected me with something that I heard from the Messenger of Allah [SAW]. When Chosroes died, he said: 'Whom have they appointed as his successor?' They said: 'His daughter.' He said: 'No people will ever prosper who entrust their leadership to a woman.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5388)  

عَصَمَنِي اللهُ ﷻ بِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَمَّا هَلَكَ كِسْرَى قَالَ «مَنِ اسْتَخْلَفُوا؟» قَالُوا ابْنَتَهُ قَالَ «لَنْ يُفْلِحَ قَوْمٌ وَلَّوْا أَمْرَهُمُ امْرَأَةً»
