٣٢٦٤٦ - حدثنا مالك بن إسماعيل قال: حدثنا زهير قال: حدثنا كنانة قال: كنت (أقود بصفية) (١): (لترد) (٢) (عن) (٣) عثمان، قال: فلقيها الأشتر فضرب وجه ⦗١٣٠⦘ (بغلها) (٤) (حتى مالت وحتى) (٥) قالت: ردوني لا يفضحني هذا (٦).
Kinana narrates that I was leading the mount of Hazrat Safiyyah so that she could go to support Hazrat Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and defend him, when suddenly Ashtar came before her and started striking the face of her mule until the mule turned back, and Hazrat Safiyyah also began to say, "Take me back, lest this man disgrace me."
