قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ مَرْيَمَ بِنْتِ طَارِقٍ قَالَتْ:

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ ؓ... فَذَكَرْتُ الْحَدِيثَ. قَالَتْ: وَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ: يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، إِنَّ كَرِيِّي يَتَنَاوَلُ سَاقِي، فَأَعْرَضَتْ عَنْهَا بِوَجْهِهَا، وَقَالَتْ: أَخْرِجِيهَا، فَأُخْرِجَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ عَنْهَا، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَتْ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ، فَقَالَتْ: « يَا نِسَاءَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، مَا يَمْنَعُ الْمَرْأَةَ إِذَا أَصَابَتِ الذَّنْبَ فَسُتِرَ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَسْتُرَ مَا سَتَرَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَلَا تُبْدِي لِلنَّاسِ، فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يُعَيِّرُونَ، وَلَا يُغَيِّرُونَ، وَإِنَّ اللهَ يُغَيِّرُ، وَلَا يُعَيِّرُ

✧ I entered upon ʿĀʾishah ؓ... and mentioned the hadith. She said: A woman among the women said: “O Mother of the Believers, my tenant touches my shin,” so she turned her face away from her and said: “Make her leave,” and the woman was made to leave her. Then she turned to the women and said: “O women of the believers, what prevents a woman, if she commits a sin and it is concealed for her, from concealing what God, Mighty and Majestic, has concealed, and not revealing it to people? For people find fault but do not change, while God changes and does not find fault.”
