حَدَّثَنَا مُطَّلِبُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ وَلَدِ بَنِي كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ خَيْرَةَ امْرَأَةِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِحُلِيٍّ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي تَصَدَّقْتُ بِهَذَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهُ لَا يَجُوزُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ فِي مَالِهَا أَمْرٌ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ زَوْجِهَا فَهَلِ اسْتَأْذَنْتِ كَعْبًا؟» فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَبَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى كَعْبٍ فَقَالَ «هَلْ أَذِنْتَ لِخَيْرَةَ أَنْ تَصَّدَّقَ بِحُلِيِّهَا؟» فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَبِلَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْهَا الْخَرْقَاءُ السَّوْدَاءُ الَّتِي كَانَتْ تُمِيطُ الْأَذَى عَنْ مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ

✧ She came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with jewelry and said, “I have given this as charity.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “It is not permissible for a woman to do anything with her wealth except with her husband’s permission. Have you asked Ka'b’s permission?” She said, “Yes.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for Ka'b and asked, “Have you permitted Khayrah to give her jewelry as charity?” He said, “Yes.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ accepted it from her. [She was] al-Kharqā’, the black woman who used to remove harmful things from the mosque of the Prophet ﷺ.
