وَعَن عائشةَ أَنَّ هِنْدًا بِنْتَ عُتْبَةَ قَالَتْ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ بَايِعْنِي فَقَالَ: «لَا أُبَايِعُكِ حَتَّى تُغَيِّرِي كَفَّيْكِ فَكَأَنَّهُمَا كَفَّا سَبُعٍ». رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ
Translation
‘A’isha told that when Hind daughter of ‘Utba said, “Prophet of God, accept my allegiance," he replied, “Not till you make a difference to the palms of your hands ; for they look like the paws of a beast of prey." (A strong way of saying that a woman's hands with no henna on them are ugly) Abu Dawud transmitted it.
