- قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ - هُوَ ابْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ - ثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ:
أَعْرَسْتُ فِي عَهْدِ أَبِي، فَأَذِنَ النَّاسَ، فَكَانَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ فِي مَنْ أَذِنَ، وَقَدْ سَتَرُوا بِنِجَادٍ أَخْضَرَ، [فَأَقْبَلَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ فَدَخَلَ - وَأَبِي قَائِمٌ - فَاطَّلَعَ فَرَأَى الْبَيْتَ مُسَتَّرًا بِنِجَادٍ أَخْضَرَ] فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ، أَتَسْتُرُونَ الْجُدُرَ ؟، فَقَالَ أَبِي: - وَاسْتَحْيَا - يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ، غَلَبَنَا النِّسَاءُ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ خَشِيتَ أَنْ يَغْلِبَهُ النِّسَاءُ فَلَمْ أَخْشَى أَنْ يَغْلِبْنَكَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " وَاللهِ لَا أَطْعَمُ لَكَ طَعَامًا، وَلَا أَدْخُلُ لَكُمْ بَيْتًا ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ".

✧ I got married during the time of my father, so he invited the people, and Abu Ayyub was among those he invited. They had hung green curtains, so Abu Ayyub came and entered—while my father was standing—and he looked and saw the house covered with green curtains. He said, 'O 'Abdullah, do you cover the walls?' My father said, feeling shy, 'O Abu Ayyub, the women overpowered us.' He said, 'Whoever I feared the women would overpower, I did not fear they would overpower you.' Then he said, 'By Allah, I will not eat food for you, nor will I enter a house for you,' and then he left.
