حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً يَهُودِيَّةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ مَسْمُومَةٍ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهَا فَجِيءَ بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ أَرَدْتُ لأَقْتُلَكَ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُسَلِّطَكِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَوْ قَالَ عَلَىَّ قَالَ فَقَالُوا أَلاَ نَقْتُلُهَا قَالَ لاَ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَعْرِفُهَا فِي لَهَوَاتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ

A Jewess brought a poisoned sheep to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he ate of it. She was then brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who asked her about it. She said: I intended to kill you. He said: Allah will not give you control over it ; or he said: over me. They (the Companions) said: Should we not kill her ? He said: No. He (Anas) said: I always found it in the uvula of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
