Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 9, Hadith 137

Urwah bin Zubair narrated that ‘Aishah said: “I did not know until Zainab burst in on me without permission and she was angry. Then she said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, is it enough for you that the young daughter of Abu Bakr waves her hands in front of you?’ Then she turned to me, but I ignored her until the Prophet said: ‘You should say something to defend yourself.’ So I turned on her, (and replied to her) until I saw that her mouth had become dry, and she did not say anything back to me. And I saw the Prophet with his face shining.” (Hasan).

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنِ الْبَهِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ مَا عَلِمْتُ حَتَّى دَخَلَتْ عَلَىَّ زَيْنَبُ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنٍ وَهِيَ غَضْبَى ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَحَسْبُكَ إِذَا قَلَبَتْ لَكَ بُنَيَّةُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ذُرَيْعَتَيْهَا ‏.‏ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَتْ عَلَىَّ فَأَعْرَضْتُ عَنْهَا حَتَّى قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏
“‏ دُونَكِ فَانْتَصِرِي ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَأَقْبَلْتُ عَلَيْهَا حَتَّى رَأَيْتُهَا وَقَدْ يَبِسَ رِيقُهَا فِي فِيهَا مَا تَرُدُّ عَلَىَّ شَيْئًا فَرَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَتَهَلَّلُ وَجْهُهُ ‏.‏

Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 9, Hadith 137
Ungraded

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. Within the esteemed group of the six canonical hadith collections, Sunan Ibn Majah occupies a unique position. Compiled by the scholar Ibn Majah, who died in 273 AH, this work assembles approximately 4,000 hadiths addressing a comprehensive set of topics. These narratives provide vital insights into Islamic faith, the proper observance of rituals, the cultivation of good character, and complex social issues. Its reputation, however, is nuanced. It is universally respected yet simultaneously acknowledged to have a higher number of weak narrations compared to Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and the other Sunan works. Consequently, scholars approach it with a discerning eye, but it is nonetheless a cornerstone text for academic reference.
