[2161] 30 - (935) 'Amrah narrated that she heard 'Aishah say: "When news of the killing of Zaid bin Hârithah, Ja'far bin Abî Tâlib and 'Abdullâh bin Rawâhah reached the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sat down and grief could be seen in his face. She said: "I was watching through the crack of the door and a man came to him and said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, the womenfolk of Ja'far...' and he mentioned their crying. He told him to go and tell them not to do that. So he went, then he came back and told him that they had paid him no heed. He told him a second time to go and tell them not to do that, and he went, then he came back and said: 'By Allāh, they will not listen to us, O Messenger of Allāh.'" And she said that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Go and throw sand in their mouths." 'Aīshah said: "I said: 'May Allāh rub your nose in the dust, you did not do what the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ commanded you, and you did not stop annoying the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.'"
