[Machine] "Allah protected me with something that I heard from the Prophet ﷺ when he learned that the king of Yemen, Dhul-Yazan, had passed away and they wanted to appoint a woman as their leader. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'A nation will never prosper if they are led by a woman.'"  

الحاكم:٧٧٩٠أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى ثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ

عَصَمَنِي اللَّهُ بِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَمَّا بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ مَلِكَ ذِي يَزَنٍ تُوُفِّيَ فَوَلَّوْا أَمَرَهُمُ امْرَأَةً فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَنْ يُفْلِحَ قَوْمٌ تَمْلِكُهُمُ امْرَأَةٌ»
