[5690] 32 - (2180) It was narrated from Umm Salamah that a hermaphrodite was with her when the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was in the house. He said to the brother of Umm Salamah: "O 'Abdullâh bin Abî Umayyah, if Allâh enables you to conquer At-Tâ'if, I will show you the daughter of Ghailân, for she shows four folds when facing you and eight when she turns her back." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ heard him and said: "These people should never enter upon you."

Arabic text

32 - (2180) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ هِشَامٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، أَيْضًا - وَاللَّفْظُ هَذَا -، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّ مُخَنَّثًا كَانَ عِنْدَهَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْبَيْتِ، فَقَالَ لِأَخِي أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ إِنْ فَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمُ الطَّائِفَ غَدًا، فَإِنِّي أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى بِنْتِ غَيْلَانَ، فَإِنَّهَا تُقْبِلُ بِأَرْبَعٍ وَتُدْبِرُ بِثَمَانٍ، قَالَ فَسَمِعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «لَا يَدْخُلْ هَؤُلَاءِ عَلَيْكُمْ»
