قَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتَ يَزِيدَ ؓ تَقُولُ:
تَابَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نِسْوَةٍ، فَقَالَ لَنَا: « فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُنَّ ؟ » فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، بَايِعْنَا ! فَقَالَ ﷺ: « إِنِّي لَا أُصَافِحُكُنَّ، إِنَّمَا آخُذُ عَلَيْكُنَّ مَا أَخَذَهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

✧ I followed the Messenger of God ﷺ among women, and he said to us: "As much as you are able." We said: O Messenger of God, accept our pledge! He ﷺ said: "I do not shake hands with you; I only take from you what God, Mighty and Majestic, has taken."
