"I came to the Prophet with some other Ansari women to give our pledge. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we give you our pledge that we will not associate anything with Allah, we will not steal, we will not have unlawful sexual relations, we will not utter slander, fabricating from between our hands and feet, and we will not disobey you in goodness.' He said: 'As much as you can and are able.' We said: 'Allah and His Messenger are more merciful toward us. Com, let us give you our pledge, O Messenger of Allah! The Messenger of Allah said: 'I do not shake hands with women. Rather my word to a hundred women is like my word to one woman."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4181)

"I pledged to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with some women. He said to us: 'In as much as you are able and capable.' I said: 'Allah and His Messenger are more merciful to us than we are to ourselves,' then I said: 'O Messenger of Allah take the pledge from us.'" - Sufyan (one of the narrators) said: meaning: 'shake (hands) on it with us' - "so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'My statement to one hundred women is like my statement to one.'" [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from 'Aishah, from 'Abdullah bin 'Umar, and Asma' bint Yazid.  

[Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih, we do not know of it except as a narration of Muhammad bin Al-Munkadir. Sufyan Ath-Thawri, Malik bin Anas, and others reported this Hadith from Muhammad bin Al-Munkadir similarly. He said: I asked Muhammad about this Hadith and he said: "I am not aware of a Hadith other than this from Umaimah bint Ruqaiqah." There is another woman named Umaimah who narrated from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.

Malik related to me from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir that Umayma bint Ruqayqa said, "I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with the women who took an oath of allegiance with him in Islam. They said, 'Messenger of Allah! We take a pledge with you not to associate anything with Allah, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to kill our children, nor to produce any lie that we have devised between our hands and feet, and not to disobey you in what is known.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'In what you can do and are able.' " Umayma continued, "They said, 'Allah and His Messenger are more merciful to us than ourselves. Come, let us give our hands to you, Messenger of Allah!' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I do not shake hands with women. My word to a hundred women is like my word to one woman.' "

ahmad:27133Yaʿqūb from my father > Ibn Isḥāq > Salīṭ b. Ayyūb b. al-Ḥakam b. Sulaym from his mother

[Machine] Narrated by Salma bint Qais, who was one of the aunts of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , she prayed with him in both the Qiblas. She was one of the women of Banu 'Adi ibn al-Najjar. Salma said, "I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and pledged allegiance to him on behalf of some women from the Ansar. When he stipulated that we should not associate anything with Allah, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor kill our children, nor bring forth any falsehood fabrications which we fabricate between our hands and feet, nor disobey him in ma'ruf (good actions)", Salma said: "He also said, 'Do not deceive your husbands.'"

Then we gave him our pledge of allegiance and left. I said to one of them (the women of our group): 'Go back and ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what cheating our husbands means.' She asked him and he replied, 'It means that you should take your husband's wealth and give it to someone else (as gifts).' "

We said: 'We pledge allegiance to you, O Messenger of Allah, that we will not associate partners with Allah, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor kill our children, nor bring forth false accusations that we fabricate with our own hands and feet, nor disobey you in doing good deeds.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Do as much as you are capable of doing and have the strength for.' We said: 'By Allah and His Messenger, we are more merciful to ourselves than anyone else. Come, let us pledge allegiance to you, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'I do not shake hands with women. My saying to a hundred women is like my saying to one woman, or like my saying to one woman.'"

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ regarding women, and he said, "Take the pledge not to associate anything with Allah, not to steal, and not to commit adultery." Then he said, "To the best of your ability and within your means." We said, "May Allah and His Messenger be kinder to us than ourselves." We said, "O Messenger of Allah, give us your pledge."

[Machine] I entered upon the Prophet ﷺ in the presence of women and we said, "We pledge allegiance to you, O Messenger of Allah, that we will not associate anything with Allah, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor spread false accusations conceived between our hands and feet, and that we will not disobey you in what is right." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Regarding what I have permitted you and what I have prohibited, you are able and capable of following." We said, "Our pledge is to Allah and His Messenger, as He is more merciful towards us." So we gave our pledge to the Messenger of Allah, and he said, "I do not shake hands with women, and indeed my statement to one hundred is like my statement to one."
