nasai-kubra:9183ʿUbaydullāh b. Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm from my uncle from my father > Ṣāliḥ > Ibn Shihāb > Nabhān a freed slave of Um Salamah > Um Salamah

[Machine] Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had instructed us that if one of us had any written correspondence, he should complete what remained of his writing, then set it aside and inform me. Ubaidullah ibn Saad narrated this in another context and said, "If there is anything that needs to be decided regarding it, then conceal it from me."  

الكبرى للنسائي:٩١٨٣أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ أَنَّ نَبْهَانَ مَوْلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَ عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا إِذَا كَانَ لِإِحْدَانَا مُكَاتَبٌ فَقَضَى مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ كِتَابَتِهِ فَاضْرِبْنَ دُونَهُ الْحِجَابَ أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعْدٍ فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخِرَ وَقَالَ «إِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَ الْمُكَاتَبِ مَا يَقْضِي عَنْهُ فَاحْتَجِبِي مِنْهُ»

[Machine] The messenger of Allah ﷺ made a pact with us that when he is at the desk of one of you, meaning fulfilling what is left of his correspondence, then we should hide from him.

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا إِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَ مُكَاتَبِ إِحْدَاكُنَّ يَعْنِي وَفَاءٌ بِمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ مُكَاتَبَتِهِ فَاحْتَجِبْنَ مِنْهُ
