I heard 'A'isha, the wife of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. say: If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had seen what new things the women have introduced (in their way of life) he would have definitely prevented them from going to the mosque, as the women of BaniIsra'il were prevented.  

مسلم:٤٤٥a – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بِلاَلٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ

أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ تَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَأَى مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا مُنِعَتْ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ أَنِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مُنِعْنَ الْمَسْجِدَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ

bukhari:869 – ʿAbdullāh b. Yūsuf > Mālik > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > ʿAmrah > ʿĀʾishah

Had Messenger of Allah ﷺ known what the women were doing, he would have forbidden them from going to the mosque as the women of Bani Israel had been forbidden. Yahya bin Saʿid (a sub-narrator) asked ʿAmra (another sub-narrator), "Were the women of Bani Israel forbidden?" She replied "Yes."  

البخاري:٨٦٩ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

لَوْ أَدْرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ كَمَا مُنِعَتْ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ أَوَ مُنِعْنَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ

أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ لَوْ أَدْرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا مُنِعَهُ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالَ يَحْيَى فَقُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ أَمُنِعَهُ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ  

malik:14-16 – Mālik > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > ʿAmrah Bint ʿAbd al-Raḥman

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ said, "If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had seen what women do now, he would have forbidden them to go into the mosques, just as the women of the Bani Israil were forbidden." Yahya ibn Said said that he asked Amra, "Were the women of the Bani Israil forbidden to go into the mosques?" and she said, "Yes."  

مالك:١٤-١٦ – وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لَوْ أَدْرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ كَمَا مُنِعَهُ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ فَقُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ أَوَمُنِعَ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الْمَسَاجِدَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ  

ahmad:24602 – Yūnus > Ḥammād / Ibn Zayd > Yaḥyá > ʿAmrah > ʿĀʾishah > Law

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw something from the women that we have not seen preventing them from the mosques, similar to how the children of Israel prevented their women. I asked 'Umar, 'Did the children of Israel prevent their women?' He said, 'Yes.'"  

أحمد:٢٤٦٠٢ – حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ لَوْ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى مِنَ النِّسَاءِ مَا رَأَيْنَا لَمَنَعَهُنَّ مِنَ الْمَسَاجِدِ كَمَا مَنَعَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ نِسَاءَهَا قُلْتْ لِعَمْرَةَ وَمَنَعَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ نِسَاءَهَا؟ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ  

ahmad:25610 – Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > Yaḥyá > ʿAmrah > ʿĀʾishah > Law

yes. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 569)   

أحمد:٢٥٦١٠ – حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَمْرَةَ سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ تَقُولُ لَوْ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ مَنَعَهُنَّ كَمَا مُنِعَ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ وَنِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مُنِعْنَ الْمَسْجِدَ؟ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ
