٢- أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَتَدْرِي كَيْفَ بَايَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) النِّسَاءَ قُلْتُ اللهُ أَعْلَمُ وَابْنُ رَسُولِهِ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ جَمَعَهُنَّ حَوْلَهُ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِتَوْرِ بَرَامٍ فَصَبَّ فِيهِ نَضُوحاً ثُمَّ غَمَسَ يَدَهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اسْمَعْنَ يَا هَؤُلاءِ أُبَايِعُكُنَّ عَلَى أَنْ لا تُشْرِكْنَ بِاللهِ شَيْئاً وَلا تَسْرِقْنَ وَلا تَزْنِينَ وَلا تَقْتُلْنَ أَوْلادَكُنَّ وَلا تَأْتِينَ بِبُهْتَانٍ تَفْتَرِينَهُ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُنَّ وَأَرْجُلِكُنَّ وَلا تَعْصِينَ بُعُولَتَكُنَّ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ أَقْرَرْتُنَّ قُلْنَ نَعَمْ فَأَخْرَجَ يَدَهُ مِنَ التَّوْرِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُنَّ اغْمِسْنَ أَيْدِيَكُنَّ فَفَعَلْنَ فَكَانَتْ يَدُ رَسُولِ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) الطَّاهِرَةُ أَطْيَبَ مِنْ أَنْ يَمَسَّ بِهَا كَفَّ أُنْثَى لَيْسَتْ لَهُ بِمَحْرَمٍ.
2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Ahmad ibn Ishaq from Sa‘dan ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, once asked me, ‘Do you know how the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, pledged allegiance with women?’ I replied, ‘Allah knows best and the child of His Messenger knows best.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He (the Messenger of Allah) called them to come together around him (the Messenger of Allah) and asked for a bowl. The place was Baram (near al-Baqi‘). He (the Messenger of Allah) poured water in the bowl just to moisten it and immersed his hand in it, then said, ‘Listen all of you. I pledge allegiance with you with the condition that you will not call anything as partners of Allah, you must not steal, you must not fornicate, you must not kill your children, you must not accuse falsely fabricating all by yourselves and you must not disobey your husbands in lawful matters. Do you confirm and acknowledge?’ They replied, ‘Yes, we confirm.’ He (the Messenger of Allah) then moved his hand from the bowl then said to them, ‘Immerse your hands in the bowl and they also did so. The purified and holy hand of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, must not have touched female hands who were not of his relatives.’”
