Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 49, Hadith 292

Narrated Safiyyah bint Huyai: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered upon me and some words had reached me from Hafsah and ‘Aishah. 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 Muhammad and my father is Harun, and my uncle is Musa?” That which had reached her, was that they had said: “We are more honored to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) than her,” and that they said: “We are the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) and his cousins.”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ، هُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْكُوفِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا كِنَانَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ حُيَىٍّ، قَالَتْ دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي عَنْ حَفْصَةَ وَعَائِشَةَ كَلاَمٌ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ ‏
“‏ أَلاَ قُلْتِ فَكَيْفَ تَكُونَانِ خَيْرًا مِنِّي وَزَوْجِي مُحَمَّدٌ وَأَبِي هَارُونُ وَعَمِّي مُوسَى ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَكَانَ الَّذِي بَلَغَهَا أَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا نَحْنُ أَكْرَمُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنْهَا ‏.‏ وَقَالُوا نَحْنُ أَزْوَاجُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَبَنَاتُ عَمِّهِ ‏.‏ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ‏.‏هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ صَفِيَّةَ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ هَاشِمٍ الْكُوفِيُّ وَلَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِذَلِكَ الْقَوِيِّ ‏.‏
