3892. Ṣafīyyah bint Ḥuyāī said:
“The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered upon me and some words had reached me from Ḥafṣah and ‘Āishah. So I mentioned it to him. So he said: ‘Why did you not say: “And how are you two better than me, while my husband is Muḥammad and my father is Hārūn, and my uncle is Mūsā?”’
That which had reached her, was that they had said: “We are more honored to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ than her,” and that they said: “We are the wives of the Prophet ﷺ and his cousins.” (Da’if)
[He said:] And there is a narration on this topic from Anas.
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharīb. We do not know of it except as a narration of Hishām Al-Kūfī, and its chain is not that [strong].

Commentary
Ṣafīyyah is from the children of Hārūn bin ‘Imrān. Mūsā bin ‘Imrān is a real brother of Hārūn. Ḥafṣah and ‘Āishah are from the tribe of Quraish. All this explanation means that Ṣafīyyah is also from a notable noble and family.
