1299. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: When the Prophet ﷺ got the news of the death of (Zaid) Ibn Hārītha, Ja'far and Ibn Rawāha, he sat down and looked sad and I was looking at him through the chink of the door. A man came and told him about the crying of the women of Ja'far. The Prophet ﷺ ordered him to forbid them. The man went and came back saying that he had told them but they did not listen to him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Forbid them." So, again he went and came back for the third time and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! By Allāh, they did not listen to us at all." ('Āishah added): Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered him to go and put dust in their mouths. I said (to that man), "May Allāh stick your nose in the dust (i.e. humiliate you)! You could neither (persuade the women to) fulfil the order of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ nor did you relieve Allāh's Messenger ﷺ from (his) distress."

1299 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَتْنِي عَمْرَةُ، قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: لَمَّا جَاءَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَتْلُ ابْنِ حَارِثَةَ، وَجَعْفَرٍ، وَابْنِ رَوَاحَةَ جَلَسَ يُعْرَفُ فِيهِ الحُزْنُ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ مِنْ صَائِرِ البَابِ شَقِّ البَابِ، فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ نِسَاءَ جَعْفَرٍ وَذَكَرَ بُكَاءَهُنَّ، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَنْهَاهُنَّ، فَذَهَبَ، ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّانِيَةَ، لَمْ يُطِعْنَهُ، فَقَالَ: «انْهَهُنَّ» فَأَتَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ، قَالَ: وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ غَلَبْنَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «فَاحْثُ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِنَّ التُّرَابَ» فَقُلْتُ: أَرْغَمَ اللَّهُ أَنْفَكَ، لَمْ تَفْعَلْ مَا أَمَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَلَمْ تَتْرُكْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ العَنَاءِ
