4071. It was narrated from Huraith bin Al-Abajj As-Salihi that a woman from Banū Asad said: "One day I was with Zainab, the wife of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and we were dyeing some garments of hers with ochre. While we were like that, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ looked at us, but when he saw the ochre he went away. When Zainab saw that, she realized that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ disliked what she had done, so she started washing her garments and concealed everything that had the red color. Then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came and looked again, and when he did not see anything, he came in." (Da'if)

4071 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْفٍ الطَّائِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي - قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْفٍ الطَّائِيُّ: وَقَرَأْتُ فِي أَصْلِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ - قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ضَمْضَمٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ حُرَيْثِ بْنِ الْأَبَحِّ السَّلِيحِيِّ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ، قَالَتْ: «كُنْتُ يَوْمًا عِنْدَ زَيْنَبَ امْرَأَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ نَصْبُغُ ثِيَابًا لَهَا بِمَغْرَةٍ، فَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ طَلَعَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْمَغْرَةَ رَجَعَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ ذَلِكَ زَيْنَبُ عَلِمَتْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ كَرِهَ مَا فَعَلَتْ، فَأَخَذَتْ فَغَسَلَتْ ثِيَابَهَا، وَوَارَتْ كُلَّ حُمْرَةٍ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَعَ فَاطَّلَعَ، فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَرَ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ»
