وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، قَالَ:

أَتَيْتُ أُمَّ كُلْثُومٍ يَعْنِي بِنْتَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهَا، وَفِي الْبَيْتِ سَرِيرٌ مَحْبُوكٌ بِلِيفٍ وَوِسَادَةٌ وَقِرْبَةٌ مُعَلَّقَةٌ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا تَنْظُرُ ؟ أَمَا إِنَّا مِنَ اللهِ بِخَيْرٍ، لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَنَا إِلَّا صَدَقَةُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَوْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ لَكَانَ لَنَا فِي ذَلِكَ غِنًى. قَالَ: قُلْتُ: دَرَاهِمُ أَوْصَى بِهَا سَلْمَانُ ؓ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهَا رُقَيَّةُ ؟ فَقَالَتْ: لَا أَعْرِفُهَا، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: خُذِيهَا. فَقَالَتْ: إِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ تَكُونَ صَدَقَةً، وَلَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا صَدَقَةٌ، وَلَكِنِ انْطَلِقْ فَتَصَدَّقْ بِهَا أَنْتَ. فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: بَلْ تَصَدَّقِي بِهَا أَنْتِ، فَأَبَتْ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَقَدْ جَاءَتِ الْبَارِحَةَ صُرَّةٌ مِنَ الْعِرَاقِ فَرَدَدْتُهَا، وَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ أَقْبَلَهَا

✧ I came to Umm Kulthum, meaning the daughter of Ali b. Abi Talib ؓ, and entered upon her. In the house there was a bed woven with palm fiber, a cushion, and a hanging water-skin. I began to look, and she said: What are you looking at? Indeed, we are in good from Allah. If we had nothing but the sadaqa of the Prophet ﷺ or of Ali ؓ, we would have sufficiency in that. He said: I said: Are there dirhams that Salman ؓ bequeathed to a mawla of his called Ruqayya? She said: I do not know her. I said to her: Take it. She said: I fear it may be sadaqa, and sadaqa is not lawful for us. But go and give it as sadaqa yourself. I said to her: Rather, you give it as sadaqa. She refused, then said: Last night a purse came from Iraq and I returned it, refusing to accept it.
