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
