English

[5236] 88 – (2007) It was narrated that Sahl bin Sa'd said: "Mention was made to the Messenger of Allah of an Arab woman, so he commanded Abü Usaid to send for her. He sent for her and she came, and she stayed in the fortress of Banü Sâ'idah. The Messenger of Allah went out to her and entered upon her, and he saw a woman with her head lowered. When the Messenger of Allah spoke to her, she said: 'I seek refuge with Allah from you.' He said: 'You are protected from me.' They said to her: 'Do you know who this is?' She said: 'No.' They said: 'This is the Messenger of Allah , who came to propose marriage to you.' She said: 'Then I am most unfortunate." Sahi said: "Then the Messenger of Allah came and sat that day beneath the pavilion of Banü Sâ'idah, along with his Companions, and said: 'Give us something to drink.' So I brought this vessel out to them and gave them something to drink in it." AN Hâzim said: "Sahi brought that vessel out and we drank from it. Then after that 'Umar bin 'Abdul-'AzIz asked him to give it to him as a gift, and he gave it to him." According to the report of Abü Bakr bin Isbâq he said: "Give us something to drink, 0 Sahl."
