قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَتْ جُوَيْرِيَةُ بِنْتُ الْحَارِثِ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِنَّ أَزْوَاجَكَ يَفْخَرْنَ عَلَيَّ، يَقُلْنَ: لَمْ يَتَزَوَّجْكِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، إِنَّمَا أَنْتِ مِلْكُ يَمِينٍ ! فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: « أَلَمْ أُعْظِمْ صَدَاقَكِ ؟ أَلَمْ أُعْتِقْ أَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ قَوْمِكِ

✧ Your wives indeed boast over me. They say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not marry you; you are only a possession of the right hand! So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Did I not make your dowry substantial? Did I not free forty of your people?"
