حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا بَكَّارُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ الْقَاضِي بِمِصْرَ ثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى الْقَاضِي ثَنَا عَوْفُ بْنُ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجَمَلِ أَرَدْتُ
أَنْ آتِيَهُمْ أُقَاتِلُ مَعَهُمْ حَتَّى ذَكَرْتُ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ كِسْرَى أَوْ بَعْضَ مُلُوكِ الْأَعَاجِمِ مَاتَ فَوَلَّوْا أَمَرَهُمُ امْرَأَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يُفْلِحُ قَوْمٌ تَمْلِكُهُمُ امْرَأَةٌ»

✧ I came to them to fight alongside them, until I remembered a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: it reached him that Kisra or one of the kings of the Persians died, and they put a woman in charge of their affairs. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “A people will not succeed if a woman rules over them.”
