Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 42, Hadith 14
Narrated ‘Aishah: that a group of Jews entered upon the Prophet (ﷺ) and they said: “As-Samu ‘Alaik (death be upon you).” So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Wa ‘Alaik (And upon you).” So ‘Aishah said: “I said: ‘ upon you be death and the curse.'” So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “O ‘Aishah! Indeed Allah loves gentleness in every matter.” ‘Aishah said: “Did you not hear what they said?” He said: “And I replied: ‘And upon you.'”
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ إِنَّ رَهْطًا مِنَ الْيَهُودِ دَخَلُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالُوا السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ” عَلَيْكُمْ ” . فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ بَلْ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّامُ وَاللَّعْنَةُ . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ” يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ فِي الأَمْرِ كُلِّهِ ” . قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالُوا قَالَ ” قَدْ قُلْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ ” . وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيِّ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَنَسٍ وَأَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجُهَنِيِّ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
