حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ؓ أَنَّ صَفِيَّةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَخْبَرَتْهُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ
كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَعِنْدَهُ أَزْوَاجُهُ فَرُحْنَ فَقَالَ لِصَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ حُيَىٍّ لاَ تَعْجَلِي حَتَّى أَنْصَرِفَ مَعَكِ وَكَانَ بَيْتُهَا فِي دَارِ أُسَامَةَ فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَعَهَا فَلَقِيَهُ رَجُلاَنِ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَنَظَرَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَجَازَا وَقَالَ لَهُمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ تَعَالَيَا إِنَّهَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ حُيَىٍّ قَالاَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَجْرِي مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ مَجْرَى الدَّمِ وَإِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ يُلْقِيَ فِي أَنْفُسِكُمَا شَيْئًا

The wives of the Prophet ﷺ were with him in the mosque (while he was in Iʿtikaf) and then they departed and the Prophet ﷺ said to Safiya bint Huyai, "Don't hurry up, for I shall accompany you," (and her dwelling was in the house of Usama). The Prophet ﷺ went out and in the meantime two Ansari men met him and they looked at the Prophet ﷺ and passed by. The Prophet ﷺ said to them, "Come here. She is (my wife) Safiya bint Huyai." They replied, "Subhan Allah, (How dare we think of evil) O Allah's Apostle! (we never expect anything bad from you)." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Satan circulates in the human being as blood circulates in the body, and I was afraid lest Satan might insert an evil thought in your minds."
