Collected by Aḥmad, Ibn Ḥibbān
ahmad:25715 – Wakīʿ > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck a servant, nor a woman, and he never struck anything with his hand—except when striving in the path of Allah.

أحمد:٢٥٧١٥ – حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَادِمًا قَطُّ وَلَا امْرَأَةً وَلَا ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ

ذِكْرُ مَا كَانَ يَسْتَعْمِلُ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ مِنْ تَرْكِ ضَرْبِ أَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِنَفْسِهِ

ibnhibban:6444 – al-Ḥasan b. Sufyān > Muḥammad b. al-Minhāl al-Ḍarīr > Yazīd b. Zurayʿ > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > ʿUrwah > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck anything with his hand except when fighting for the cause of Allah, and he never struck a woman or a servant."

ابن حبّان:٦٤٤٤ – أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ الضَّرِيرُ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

«مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ شَيْئًا قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَمَا ضَرَبَ امْرَأَةً قَطُّ وَلَا خَادِمًا قَطُّ»
