حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ أُمَيْمَةَ بِنْتِ رُقَيْقَةَ، أَنَّها قَالَتْ: أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي نِسْوَةٍ نُبَايِعُهُ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، نُبَايِعُكَ عَلَى أَنْ لَا نُشْرِكَ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا، وَلَا نَسْرِقَ، وَلَا نَزْنِيَ، وَلَا نَأْتِيَ بِبُهْتَانٍ نَفْتَرِيهِ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَأَرْجُلِنَا، وَلَا نَعْصِيَكَ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ، قَالَ: " فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُنَّ، ، وَأَطَقْتُنَّ " (١) . قَالَتْ: فَقُلْنَا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَرْحَمُ بِنَا مِنَّا بِأَنْفُسِنَا، هَلُمَّ نُبَايِعُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنِّي لَا أُصَافِحُ النِّسَاءَ، إِنَّمَا قَوْلِي لِمِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ، كَقَوْلِي لِامْرَأَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Umaymah bint Ruqaiqah that I, along with some Muslim women, presented ourselves before the Prophet (peace be upon him) to pledge allegiance (bay‘ah), and we all said: O Messenger of Allah! We have come to you to pledge allegiance on these conditions: that we will not associate anything with Allah, will not steal, will not commit adultery, will not kill our children, will not fabricate any slander between our hands and feet, and will not disobey you in any good work. The Prophet (peace be upon him) prompted us: and (pledge) that you will do so according to your ability and strength. I said: Allah and His Messenger are more merciful to us than we are to ourselves. O Messenger of Allah! Accept our pledge. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "(Go, I have accepted the pledge of all of you.) I do not shake hands with women; my statement to a hundred women is the same as to one woman." Thus, the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not shake hands with any of us women.
