اُردوEn
وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ، ثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَبْرَأَ صَفِيَّةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا فَقِيلَ لَهُ : مِنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ، أَوْ مِنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْأَوْلَادِ ؟ قَالَ : "مِنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) observed istibra' (waiting to confirm she was not pregnant) for Sayyidah Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) (that is, before marriage he made sure that her womb was clear and free). He (peace and blessings be upon him) was then asked whether she would be counted among the Mothers of the Believers or among the umm al-walad (slave mothers). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "She is among the Mothers of the Believers."
