حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ غَسِيلٍ عَنْ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ ؓ قَالَ
خَرَجْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حَتَّى انْطَلَقْنَا إِلَى حَائِطٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ الشَّوْطُ حَتَّى انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى حَائِطَيْنِ فَجَلَسْنَا بَيْنَهُمَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اجْلِسُوا هَا هُنَا وَدَخَلَ وَقَدْ أُتِيَ بِالْجَوْنِيَّةِ فَأُنْزِلَتْ فِي بَيْتٍ فِي نَخْلٍ فِي بَيْتٍ أُمَيْمَةُ بِنْتُ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ شَرَاحِيلَ وَمَعَهَا دَايَتُهَا حَاضِنَةٌ لَهَا فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ هَبِي نَفْسَكِ لِي قَالَتْ وَهَلْ تَهَبُ الْمَلِكَةُ نَفْسَهَا لِلسُّوقَةِ قَالَ فَأَهْوَى بِيَدِهِ يَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهَا لِتَسْكُنَ فَقَالَتْ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْكَ فَقَالَ قَدْ عُذْتِ بِمَعَاذٍ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا أُسَيْدٍ اكْسُهَا رَازِقِيَّتَيْنِ وَأَلْحِقْهَا بِأَهْلِهَا

We went out with the Prophet ﷺ to a garden called Ash-Shaut till we reached two walls between which we sat down. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Sit here," and went in (the garden). The Jauniyya (a lady from Bani Jaun) had been brought and lodged in a house in a date-palm garden in the home of Umaima bint An- Nuʿman bin Sharahil, and her wet nurse was with her. When the Prophet ﷺ entered upon her, he said to her, "Give me yourself (in marriage) as a gift." She said, "Can a princess give herself in marriage to an ordinary man?" The Prophet ﷺ raised his hand to pat her so that she might become tranquil. She said, "I seek refuge with Allah from you." He said, "You have sought refuge with One Who gives refuge. Then the Prophet ﷺ came out to us and said, "O Abu Usaid! Give her two white linen dresses to wear and let her go back to her family."
