أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ أَخُو بَهْزِ بْنِ أَسَدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُطِيعُ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتً عِصْمَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ «امْرَأَةً مَدَّتْ يَدَهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِكِتَابٍ فَقَبَضَ يَدَهُ» فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَدَدْتُ يَدِي إِلَيْكَ بِكِتَابٍ فَلَمْ تَأْخُذْهُ قَالَ «إِنِّي لَمْ أَدْرِ يَدُ امْرَأَةٍ هِيَ أَمْ يَدُ رَجُلٍ؟» قَالَتْ بَلْ يَدُ امْرَأَةٍ قَالَ «لَوْ كُنْتِ امْرَأَةً لَغَيَّرْتِ أَظْفَارَكِ بِالْحِنَّاءِ»

✧ A woman stretched out her hand to the Prophet ﷺ with a letter, and he withdrew his hand. She said: “O Messenger of Allah, I stretched out my hand to you with a letter and you did not take it.” He said: “I did not know whether it was a woman’s hand or a man’s hand.” She said: “It is a woman’s hand.” He said: “If you were a woman, you would have changed your nails with henna.”
