قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ، قَالَ:
« قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لِآدَمَ: يَا آدَمُ، مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى أَنْ أَكَلْتَ مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ الَّتِي نَهَيْتُكَ عَنْهَا ؟ قَالَ: فَاعْتَلَّ آدَمُ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَبِّ، زَيَّنَتْهُ لِي حَوَّاءُ. قَالَ: فَإِنِّي عَاقَبْتُهَا بِأَنْ لَا تَحْمِلَهَا إِلَّا كُرْهًا، وَلَا تَضَعَهَا إِلَّا كُرْهًا، وَدَمَّيْتُهَا فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ مَرَّتَيْنِ. قَالَ: فَرَنَّتْ حَوَّاءُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ. فَقِيلَ لَهَا: عَلَيْكِ الرَّنَّةُ وَعَلَى بَنَاتِكِ

✧ “Allah, Blessed and Exalted, said to Adam: ‘O Adam, what led you to eat from the tree I forbade you?’” He said: “Adam made an excuse and said: ‘O Lord, Hawwa’ made it appealing to me.’ He said: ‘Then I have punished her by making her not carry except with discomfort, and not give birth except with discomfort, and I have made her bleed twice every month.’” He said: “Hawwa’ wailed at that, and it was said to her: ‘Upon you is the wailing, and upon your daughters.’”
