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  

Hassan bin Thabit asked the permission of Messenger of Allah ﷺ to lampoon the pagans (in verse). Allah's Apostle said, "What about my fore-fathers (ancestry)?' Hassan said (to the Prophet) "I will take you out of them as a hair is taken out of dough." Narrated Hisham bin ʿUrwa that his father said, "I called Hassan with bad names in front of ʿAisha." She said, "Don't call him with bad names because he used to defend Messenger of Allah ﷺ (against the pagans).  

قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي هِجَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَيْفَ بِنَسَبِي فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ لأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ وَعَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ ذَهَبْتُ أَسُبُّ حَسَّانَ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ لاَ تَسُبُّهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُنَافِحُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] Hassan ibn Thabit sought permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to verbally attack the polytheists. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "But what about my relation with them?" Hassan replied, "I will ask you questions about them just as a strand of hair is separated from dough." (This narration is according to the stipulation of al-Bukhari and Muslim)  

اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي هِجَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَكَيْفَ بِنَسَبِي فِيهِمْ؟» فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ لَأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِعلى شرط البخاري ومسلم  

[Machine] She said, "Hassan ibn Thabit sought permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to insult the polytheists. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'What about my lineage?' Hassan replied, 'I will protect you from them as a strand of hair is separated from dough.'"  

قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي هِجَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَيْفَ بِنَسَبِي؟ » قَالَ حَسَّانُ لَأَسُلَنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعْرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ «  

"عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي هِجَاءِ المُشْرِكِينَ، قَال: فَكَيْفَ يَنسِبْنِي فِيهِمْ؟ قَالَ: لأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعْرَةُ مِنَ العَجِينِ".
