Chapter: The Orphan's Manners
Hadith 142
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ شُمَيْسَةَ الْعَتَكِيَّةِ قَالَتْ: ذُكِرَ أَدَبُ الْيَتِيمِ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَتْ: إِنِّي لأَضْرِبُ الْيَتِيمَ حَتَّى يَنْبَسِطَ.
Shumaisa ‘Atkiyyah says: One day, the topic of disciplining and training an orphan was mentioned in the presence of Sayyidah ‘A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), so she said: I discipline an orphan for the sake of training him in such a way that he lies down on the ground.
