[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.'"

30 - (935) وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ، يَقُولُ: أَخْبَرَتْنِي عَمْرَةُ، أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ عَائِشَةَ، تَقُولُ: لَمَّا جَاءَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَتْلُ ابْنِ حَارِثَةَ وَجَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ، جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعْرَفُ فِيهِ الْحُزْنُ، قَالَتْ: وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ مِنْ صَائِرِ الْبَابِ - شَقِّ الْبَابِ - فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ نِسَاءَ جَعْفَرٍ، وَذَكَرَ بُكَاءَهُنَّ، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ فَيَنْهَاهُنَّ، فَذَهَبَ، فَأَتَاهُ فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُنَّ لَمْ يُطِعْنَهُ، فَأَمَرَهُ الثَّانِيَةَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ فَيَنْهَاهُنَّ، فَذَهَبَ، ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: وَاللهِ، لَقَدْ غَلَبْنَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَتْ فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَاحْثُ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِنَّ مِنَ التُّرَابِ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَقُلْتُ: أَرْغَمَ اللهُ أَنْفَكَ، وَاللهِ، مَا تَفْعَلُ مَا أَمَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَمَا تَرَكْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْعَنَاءِ
