Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 14343

وَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ فِي قِصَّةِ الْإِفْكِ ، وَفِيهَا : فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ يُكَذِّبُ نَفْسَهُ :
حَصَانٌ رَزَانٌ مَا تُزَنُّ بِرَيْبَةٍ وَتُصْبِحُ غَرْثَى مِنْ لُحُومِ الْغَوَافِلِ فَإِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ قُلْتُ الَّذِي قَدْ
زَعَمْتُمُ فَلَا حَمَلَتْ سَوْطِي إِلَيَّ أَنَامِلِي وَكَيْفَ ؟ وَوِدِّي مَا حَيِيتُ وَنُصْرَتِي
لِآلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ زَيْنِ الْمَحَافِلِ أَأَشْتُمُ خَيْرَ الناسِ بَعْلًا وَوَالِدًا وَنَفْسًا
؟ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلْتُ شَرَّ الْمَنَازِلِ .
رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى فِي حَدِيثٍ طَوِيلٍ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرُ حَوْثَرَةَ بْنِ أَشْرَسَ ، وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ .
Sayyidah Aishah al-Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her), narrating the incident of the Slander (al-Ifk), says: Sayyiduna Hassan bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him), retracting his own words, said: "She is chaste and of perfect intellect; no suspicious matter can be charged against her. She begins her morning hungry for the flesh of the unmindful (that is, she backbites no one). If I said what you claim, then may my fingertips never lift my whip to me. How could it be, when, as long as I live, my love and my support are for the family of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), the adornment of every gathering? Would I speak ill of one who is better than all people through her husband (that is, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)), through her father (that is, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)) and in her own self? If I did so (that is, spoke ill of her), I would be lodged in the worst of places."
Abu Ya'la recorded it as part of a long hadith, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except Hawtharah bin Ashras, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).
