51. Companionship of Women
٥١۔ كِتَابُ عِشْرَةِ النِّسَاءِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Allah does not look at a woman who does not thank her husband and is not independent of him." Abu Abdullah Rahmatullah bin Mujaishir, who is a trustworthy Basri, and Yazid bin Zuray, both came forward with the narration of Sa'id bin Abu Arubah. This is because Sa'id's behavior changed towards the end of his life. So, whoever heard from him in the past, his narration is authentic and Umar bin Ibrahim confirmed its elevation and considered the place of Sa'id to be the same as Hasan al-Basri.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَنْظُرُ اللهُ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ لَا تَشْكَرُ لِزَوْجِهَا وَهِيَ لَا تَسْتَغْنِي عَنْهُ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ سِرَّارُ بْنُ مُجَشِّرٍ هَذَا ثِقَةٌ بَصْرِيٌّ هُوَ وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ يُقَدَّمَانِ فِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ؛ لَأَنَّ سَعِيدًا كَانَ تَغَيَّرَ فِي آخِرِ عُمُرِهِ فَمَنْ سَمِعَ مِنْهُ قَدِيمًا فَحَدِيثُهُ صَحِيحٌ وَافَقَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَى رَفْعِهِ وَجَعَلَ مَوْضِعَ سَعِيدٍ الْحَسَنَ الْبَصْرِيَّ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Allah does not look at a woman who does not appreciate her husband." Shu'bah ibn al-Hajjaj narrated this hadith. 'Amr ibn 'Ali reported it to us, and Yahya narrated it from Shu'bah, who narrated it from Qatadah, who narrated it from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, who narrated it from 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَنْظُرُ اللهُ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ لَا تَشْكَرُ لِزَوْجِهَا» وَقَفَهُ شُعْبَةُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ 9088 أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَوْلِهِ
[Machine] Eleven women sat together and made a pact and covenant not to conceal anything about their husbands. The first said, "My husband is like the meat of a lean camel on top of a rough mountain, neither easy to climb nor plump to take down." The second said, "I will not disclose my husband's story, for I fear I may not abandon him. If I speak, I will reveal his secrets and flaws." The third said, "My husband is tall; if I speak, I will be divorced, and if I stay silent, I will be hung up." The fourth said, "My husband is like a night of Tihamah: neither hot nor cold, with no fear and no boredom." The fifth said, "When my husband enters, he is like a leopard, and when he goes out, he is like a lion, and he does not ask about what he entrusts." The sixth said, "If my husband eats, he devours; if he drinks, he fully drinks; and if he lies down, he wraps himself. He does not insert his hand to know the distress." The seventh said, "My husband is helpless and confused, full of maladies. He may injure or break you or gather all kinds of harm for you." The eighth said, "My husband’s touch is like a rabbit’s fur and his scent is like a fragrant herb." The ninth said, "My husband is of high stature, long sword, generous with his wealth, and his home is near the gathering." The tenth said, "My husband, Malik, what can describe Malik? He is better than that. He has many camels parked and few pasturing. When they hear the sound of the flute, they are certain they will perish." The eleventh said, "My husband Abu Zar’—and what can describe Abu Zar’? He adorned my ears with jewelry, filled my arms with fat, which made me happy, and I was content with myself. He found me among a people with little livestock; he made me among a people with horses and camels. With him, I speak without rebuke, I sleep and wake up late, and I drink and am filled. The mother of Abu Zar’, what can describe the mother of Abu Zar’? Her containers are large and her house is spacious. The son of Abu Zar’, what can describe the son of Abu Zar’? His bed is like a twig of a palm, and a tender arm fills him. The daughter of Abu Zar’, what can describe the daughter of Abu Zar’? She is obedient to her father and mother and fills her clothes. She angers her neighbor. The servant of Abu Zar’, what can describe the servant of Abu Zar’? She does not gossip or waste our food and does not fill our house with waste.”
She said, “Abu Zar’ went out while the vessels were spinning, and he met a woman with two boys like leopards playing under her waist with pomegranates. He divorced me and married her. After him, I married a noble man who rode a fast horse, held a spear, tended livestock, and gave me many kinds of perfume, and he said, 'Eat, O Umm Zar’, and provide for your family.'” She said, “If I gathered everything he gave me, it would not fill a small vessel of Abu Zar’s.”
Aisha said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, 'I am to you like Abu Zar’ was to Umm Zar’.'"
جَلَسَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ امْرَأَةً فَتَعَاهَدْنَ وَتَعَاقَدْنَ أَنْ لَا يَكْتُمْنَ مِنْ أَخْبَارِ أَزْوَاجِهِنَّ شَيْئًا قَالَتِ الْأُولَى «زَوْجِي لَحْمُ جَمَلٍ غَثٍّ عَلَى رَأْسِ جَبَلٍ لَا سَهْلٍ فَيُرْتَقَى وَلَا سَمِينٍ فَيُنْتَقَلُ» قَالَتِ الثَّانِيَةُ «زَوْجِي لَا أَبُثُّ خَبَرَهُ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ لَا أَذَرَهُ إِنْ أَذْكُرْهُ أَذْكُرْ عُجَرَهُ وَبُجَرَهُ» قَالَتِ الثَّالِثَةُ «زَوْجِيَ الْعَشَنَّقُ إِنْ أَنْطِقْ أُطَلَّقْ وَإِنْ أَسْكُتْ أُعَلَّقْ» قَالَتِ الرَّابِعَةُ «زَوْجِي كَلَيْلِ تِهَامَةَ لَا حَرٌّ وَلَا قُرٌّ وَلَا مَخَافَةَ وَلَا سَآمَةَ» قَالَتِ الْخَامِسَةُ «زَوْجِي إِنْ دَخَلَ فَهِدَ وَإِنْ خَرَجَ أَسِدَ وَلَا يَسْأَلُ عَمَّا عَهِدَ» قَالَتِ السَّادِسَةُ «زَوْجِي إِنْ أَكَلَ لَفَّ وَإِنْ شَرِبَ اشْتَفَّ وَإِنِ اضْطَجَعَ الْتَفَّ وَلَا يُولِجُ الْكَفَّ لِيَعْلَمَ الْبَثَّ» قَالَتِ السَّابِعَةُ «زَوْجِي عَيَايَاءُ أَوْ غَيَايَاءُ طَبَاقَاءُ كُلُّ دَاءٍ لَهُ دَاءٌ شَجَّكِ أَوْ فَلَّكِ أَوْ جَمَعَ كُلًّا لَكِ» وَقَالَتِ الثَّامِنَةُ «زَوْجِيَ الْمَسُّ مَسُّ أَرْنَبٍ وَالرِّيحُ رِيحُ زَرْنَبٍ» وَقَالَتِ التَّاسِعَةُ «زَوْجِي رَفِيعُ الْعِمَادِ طَوِيلُ النِّجَادِ عَظِيمُ الرَّمَادِ قَرِيبُ الْبَيْتِ مِنِ النَّادِ» قَالَتِ الْعَاشِرَةُ «زَوْجِي مَالِكٌ فَمَا مَالِكٌ مَالِكٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكِ لَهُ إِبِلٌ كَثِيرَاتُ الْمَبَارِكِ قَلِيلَاتُ الْمَسَارِحِ [242] إِذَا سَمِعْنَ يَوْمًا صَوْتَ الْمِزْهَرِ أَيْقَنَّ أَنَّهُنَّ هَوَالِكُ» قَالَتِ الْحَادِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ «زَوْجِي أَبُو زَرْعٍ فَمَا أَبُو زَرْعٍ أَنَاسَ مِنْ حُلِيٍّ أُذُنَيَّ وَمَلَأَ مِنْ شَحْمٍ عَضُدَيَّ وَبَجَّحَنِي فَبَجِحَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي وَجَدَنِي فِي أَهْلِ غُنَيْمَةٍ بِشِقٍّ فَجَعَلَنِي فِي أَهْلِ صَهِيلٍ وَأَطِيطٍ وَدَائِسٍ وَمُنَقٍّ فَعِنْدَهُ أَقُولُ فَلَا أُقَبَّحُ وَأَرْقُدُ فَأَتَصَبَّحُ وَأَشْرَبُ فَأَتَقَنَّحُ أُمُّ أَبِي زَرْعٍ فَمَا أُمُّ أَبِي زَرْعٍ عُكُومُهَا رَدَاحٌ وَبَيْتُهَا فَسَاحٌ ابْنُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ فَمَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ مَضْجَعُهُ كَمَسَلِّ شَطْبَةٍ وَتُشْبِعُهُ ذِرَاعُ الْجَفْرَةِ ابْنَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ فَمَا ابْنَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ طَوْعُ أَبِيهَا وَطَوْعُ أُمِّهَا وَمِلْءُ كِسَائِهَا وَغَيْظُ جَارَتِهَا جَارِيَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ فَمَا جَارِيَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ لَا تَبُثُّ حَدِيثَنَا تَبْثِيثًا وَلَا تُنَقِّثُ مِيرَتَنَا تَنْقِيثًا وَلَا تَمْلَأُ بَيْتَنَا تَعْشِيشًا» قَالَتْ خَرَجَ أَبُو زَرْعٍ وَالْأَوْطَابُ تُمْخَضُ فَلَقِيَ امْرَأَةً مَعَهَا وَلَدَانِ لَهَا كَالْفَهْدَيْنِ يَلْعَبَانِ مِنْ تَحْتِ خَصْرِهَا بِرُمَّانَتَيْنِ فَطَلَّقَنِي وَنَكَحَهَا فَنَكَحْتُ بَعْدَهُ رَجُلًا سَرِيًّا وَرَكِبَ شَرِيًّا وَأَخَذَ خَطِّيًّا وَأَرَاحَ عَلَيَّ نَعَمًا ثَرِيًّا وَأَعْطَانِي مِنْ كُلِّ رَائِحَةٍ زَوْجًا فَقَالَ «كُلِي أُمَّ زَرْعٍ وَمِيرِي أَهْلَكِ» قَالَتْ فَلَوْ جَمَعْتُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَعْطَانِيهِ مَا بَلَغَ أَصْغَرَ آنِيَةِ أَبِي زَرْعٍ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كُنْتُ لَكِ كَأَبِي زَرْعٍ لِأُمِّ زَرْعٍ»
[Machine] "Our conversation is thorough and our mirror does not deceive. Our house is not filled with disturbance. Abu Zarr left me and the camels were in labor, so he met a woman who had two sons like cheetahs playing under her waistband with pomegranates. Abu Zarr married her and divorced me, so I married a secret man who rides a strong horse and takes my dowry, and he showered me with abundant blessings." She said, "Eat and dress your fill, for if I were to gather everything he had given me, it would not fill a container from Abu Zarr's belongings." Aisha said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, 'You are to me like the wife of Abu Zarr to Um Zarr.'" Hisham said, "Yazid bin Ruman narrated to me from Urwa from Aisha from the Prophet ﷺ with a similar narration, meaning the end of the hadith."
حَدِيثَنَا تَبْثِيثًا وَلَا تَغُشُّ مِيرَتَنَا تَغْشِيشًا وَلَا تَمْلَأُ بَيْتَنَا تَعْشِيشًا» «خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِي أَبُو زَرْعٍ وَالْأَوْطَابُ تُمْخَضُ فَلَقِيَ امْرَأَةً لَهَا ابْنَانِ كَالْفَهْدَيْنِ يَلْعَبَانِ مِنْ تَحْتِ خَصْرِهَا بِرُمَّانَتَيْنِ فَنَكَحَهَا أَبُو زَرْعٍ وَطَلَّقَنِي فَنَكَحْتُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ رَجُلًا سَرِيًّا رَكِبَ شَرِيًّا وَأَخَذَ خَطِّيًّا وَأَرَاحَ عَلَيَّ نَعَمًا ثَرِيًّا» فَقَالَ «كُلِي وَمِيرِي أَهْلَكِ فَلَوْ جَمَعْتُ كُلَّ الَّذِي أَعْطَانِي مَا بَلَغَتْ إِنَاءً مِنْ إِنَاءِ أَبِي زَرْعٍ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَكُنْتُ لَكِ كَأَبِي زَرْعٍ لِأُمِّ زَرْعٍ» [248] 9091 قَالَ هِشَامٌ فَحَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ رُومَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ يَعْنِي آخِرَ الْحَدِيثِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "O Aisha, I am to you like Abu Zar' to his Umm Zar'." Aisha said, "By my father and mother, O Messenger of Allah, who was Abu Zar'?" He said, "Eleven women gathered and each of them swore that she would tell the truth about her husband." One of them said, "I don't want to speak about his news, as I fear that I might not benefit from it and the conversation will become too lengthy." And at the end, Aisha said, "O Messenger of Allah, you are better to me than Abu Zar'."
قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا عَائِشَةُ «كُنْتُ لَكِ كَأَبِي زَرْعٍ لِأُمِّ زَرْعٍ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ «بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَنْ كَانَ أَبُو زَرْعٍ؟» قَالَ «اجْتَمَعَتْ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ نِسْوَةٍ فَأَقْسَمْنَ لَيَصْدُقْنَ عَنْ أَزْوَاجِهِنَّ» فَقَالَتْ إِحْدَاهُنَّ «لَا أُخْبِرُ خَبَرَهُ أَخْشَى أَنْ لَا أَذَرَهُ مِنْ سُوءٍ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ» وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بَلْ أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَبِي زَرْعٍ
[Machine] Here is the translation of the passage into English:
"I bragged about my father's wealth during the pre-Islamic era, and he had accumulated a thousand weights," so the Prophet ﷺ said, "Be silent, O Aisha, for I am to you as Abu Zar' was to Umm Zar'." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to narrate the story: "Eleven women gathered during the pre-Islamic period and agreed that each would tell the truth about her husband without lying."
Someone asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "The night is like the night of Tihama, neither hot nor cold, and no fear."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "The scent is like the scent of Zarnab, and the touch is like the touch of a rabbit. We overpower him, and he overpowers people."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "By Allah, I know that he is of lofty stature, long straps and generous hospitality, close to the meeting place of the public."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "I married Malik, and what is Malik's wealth? He has camels that roam abundantly and rarely stay idle. When they hear the sound of the lute, they know they are doomed."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "Leave me alone, for if I mention him, I speak of his faults, and I fear I won't stop."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "Thin camel meat on a mountain: neither fat so it can be climbed nor low-lying so it can be moved."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "By Allah, I know that when he enters, he is like a panther and when he exits, he is like a lion."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "By Allah, I know that when he eats, he consumes fully, when he drinks, he drains in one gulp. When he slaughters, he savors, and when he sleeps, he curls up, and he does not intrude to discover matters."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "I married Ashannaq. If I remain silent, I am suspended, and if I speak, I am divorced."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "He is incapacitated and lacks direction; every ailment is for him, inflicting wounds and fracturing bones, or it causes total exhaustion."
Someone else was asked, "And you, O so-and-so?" She said, "I married Abu Zar'. What is Abu Zar'? He adorned my ears and filled me with joy and companionship. He satisfied me with food until I became content. He found me among modest herds and placed me between wealth and horses, luxuries and festivities. I sleep, wake up in opulence, drink, and am satisfied, and speak without being rebuked."
"The son of Abu Zar', and what is the son of Abu Zar'? His bedding is as long as a sword scabbard and he eats to his satisfaction."
"The daughter of Abu Zar', and what is the daughter of Abu Zar'? Her clothing is full, and she is a decoration to her father and mother and a pride to her neighbor."
"The servant of Abu Zar', and what is the servant of Abu Zar'? She does not disclose our secrets and does not waste our resources."
He divorced me while the milking vessels were still full, then he found a woman with two hawkish children and married her, divorcing me. I replaced him with another, but every replacement is lesser. I married a noble young man who rode swift mounts and carried weaponry. He gave me abundant cattle and from each livestock, a pair. He said, 'Take this, O Umm Zar’, and support your family with it.' I collected it all, but it could not fill the smallest of Abu Zar’s vessels."
Aisha said, "O Messenger of Allah, you are better than Abu Zar’."
«فَخُرْتُ بِمَالِ أَبِي فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَكَانَ قَدْ أَلَّفَ أَلْفَ وَقِيَّةٍ» فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اسْكُتِي يَا عَائِشَةُ فَإِنِّي كُنْتُ لَكِ كَأَبِي زَرْعٍ لِأُمِّ زَرْعٍ ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَهُ يُحَدِّثُ «إِنَّ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ امْرَأَةً اجْتَمَعْنَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَتَعَاهَدْنَ لَتُخْبِرَنَّ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ بِمَا فِي زَوْجِهَا وَلَا تَكْذِبُ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتِ «اللَّيْلُ لَيْلُ تِهَامَةَ لَا حَرَّ وَلَا بَرْدَ وَلَا مَخَافَةَ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «الرِّيحُ رِيحُ الزَّرْنَبِ وَالْمَسُّ مَسُّ أَرْنَبِ وَنَغْلِبُهُ وَالنَّاسَ يَغْلِبُ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «وَاللهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ إِنَّهُ لرفيعُ الْعِمَادِ طَوِيلُ النِّجَادِ عَظِيمُ الرَّمَادِ قَرِيبُ الْبَيْتِ مِنَ النَّادِ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «نَكَحْتُ مَالِكًا وَمَا مَالِكٌ لَهُ إِبِلٌ كَثِيرَاتُ الْمَسَارِحِ قَلِيلَاتُ الْمَبَارِحِ إِذَا سَمِعْنَ صَوْتَ الْمِزْهَرِ أَيْقَنَّ أَنَّهُنَّ هَوَالِكُ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «ذَرْنِي لَا أَذْكُرَهُ إِنْ أَذْكُرُهُ أَذْكُرُ عُجَرَهُ وَبُجَرَهُ أَخْشَى أَنْ لَا أَذَرَهُ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «لَحْمُ جَمَلٍ غَثٍّ عَلَى جَبَلٍ لَا سَمِينٍ فَيُرْتَقَى عَلَيْهِ وَلَا بِالسَّهْلِ فَيُنْتَقَلُ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «وَاللهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ إِنَّهُ إِذَا دَخَلَ فَهِدَ وَإِذَا خَرَجَ فَأَسِدَ» [250] قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «وَاللهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ إِذَا أَكَلَ اقْتَفَّ وَإِذَا شَرِبَ اشْتَفَّ وَإِذَا ذَبَحَ اغْتَثَّ وَإِذَا نَامَ الْتَفَّ وَلَا يُدْخِلُ الْكَفَّ لِيَعْلَمَ الْبَثَّ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «نَكَحْتُ الْعَشَنَّقَ إِنْ أَسْكُتْ أُعَلَّقْ وَإِنْ أَنْطِقْ أُطَلَّقْ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «عَيَايَاءُ طَبَاقَاءُ كُلُّ دَاءٍ لَهُ دَاءٌ شَجَّكِ أَوْ فَلَّكِ أَوْ جَمَعَ كَلَّا لَكِ» قِيلَ أَنْتِ يَا فُلَانَةُ قَالَتْ «نَكَحْتُ أَبَا زَرْعٍ فَمَا أَبُو زَرْعٍ؟ أَنَاسَ أُذُنَيَّ وَفَرَّعَ فَأَخْرَجَ مِنْ شَحْمِ عَضُدَيَّ فَبَجَّحَ نَفْسِي فَبَجَحَتْ إِلَيَّ فَوَجَدَنِي فِي غُنَيْمَةٍ بِشِقٍّ فَجَعَلَنِي بَيْنَ جَامِلٍ وَصَاهِلٍ وَأَطِيطٍ وَدَائِسٍ وَمُنَقٍّ فَأَنَا أَنَامُ عِنْدَهُ فَأَتَصَبَّحُ وَأَشْرَبُ فَأَتَقَمَّحُ وَأَنْطِقُ فَلَا أُقَبَّحُ» ابْنُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ وَمَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ مَضْجَعُهُ مَسَلُّ الشَّطْبَةِ وَيُشْبِعُهُ ذِرَاعُ الْجَفْرَةِ ابْنَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ وَمَا ابْنَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ مِلْءُ إِزَارِهَا وَصَفْرُ رِدَائِهَا وَزَيْنُ أَبِيهَا وَزَيْنُ أُمِّهَا وَحَيْرُ جَارَتِهَا جَارِيَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ وَمَا جَارِيَةُ أَبِي زَرْعٍ لَا تُخْرِجُ حَدِيثَنَا تَفْتِيشًا وَلَا تُهْلِكُ مِيرَتَنَا تَبْثِيثًا فَخَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِي وَالْأَوْطَابُ تُمْخَضُ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِأُمِّ غُلَامَيْنِ كَالصَّقْرَيْنِ فَتَزَوَّجَهَا أَبُو زَرْعٍ وَطَلَّقَنِي فَاسْتَبْدَلْتُ وَكُلُّ بَدَلٍ أَعْوَرُ فَنَكَحْتُ شَابًّا سَرِيًّا رَكِبَ شَرِيًّا وَأَخَذَ خَطِّيًّا وَأَعْطَانِي نَعَمًا ثَرِيًّا وَأَعْطَانِي مِنْ كُلِّ سَائِمَةٍ زَوْجًا وَقَالَ «امْتَارِي بِهَذَا يَا أُمَّ زَرْعٍ وَمِيرِي أَهْلَكِ فَجَمَعْتُ ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ فَلَمْ يَمْلَأْ أَصْغَرَ وِعَاءٍ مِنْ أَوْعِيَةِ أَبِي زَرْعٍ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ «بَلْ أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَبِي زَرْعٍ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Shall I not inform you about your women from the people of Paradise? They are affectionate, fertile, and return to their husbands obediently. If they are hurt or mistreated, they come to their husbands, hold their hands, and say, 'By Allah, I will not experience sleep until you are pleased.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِنِسَائِكُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ الْوَدُودُ الْوَلُودُ الْعَؤُودُ عَلَى زَوْجِهَا الَّتِي إِذَا آذَتْ أَوْ أُوذِيَتْ جَاءَتْ حَتَّى تَأْخُذَ بَيْدَ زَوْجِهَا ثُمَّ تَقُولُ وَاللهِ لَا أَذُوقُ غُمْضًا حَتَّى تَرْضَى»
