حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ ، أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو يَعْنِي بْنَ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَة : أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ انْصَرَفَ مِنَ الصُّبْحِ يَوْمًا ، فَأَتَى النِّسَاءَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِنَّ ، فَقَالَ : " يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ ، مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَوَاقِصِ عُقُولٍ وَدِينٍ أَذْهَبَ لِقُلُوبِ ذَوِي الْأَلْبَابِ مِنْكُنَّ ، فَإِنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، فَتَقَرَّبْنَ إِلَى اللَّهِ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُنَّ " ، وَكَانَ فِي النِّسَاءِ امْرَأَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَأَتَتْ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ بِمَا سَمِعَتْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَخَذَتْ حُلِيًّا لَهَا ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ : فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبِينَ بِهَذَا الْحُلِيِّ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : أَتَقَرَّبُ بِهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَرَسُولِهِ ، لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ لَا يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ ، فَقَالَ : وَيْلَكِ ، هَلُمِّي فَتَصَدَّقِي بِهِ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى وَلَدِي ، فَإِنَّا لَهُ مَوْضِعٌ ، فَقَالَتْ : لَا وَاللَّهِ حَتَّى أَذْهَبَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَهَبَتْ تَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : هَذِهِ زَيْنَبُ تَسْتَأْذِنُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : " أَيُّ الزَّيَانِبِ هِيَ ؟ " فَقَالُوا : امْرَأَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَقَالَ : " ائْذَنُوا لَهَا " ، فَدَخَلَتْ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ مِنْكَ مَقَالَةً ، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ ، وَأَخَذْتُ حُلِيًّا أَتَقَرَّبُ بِهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَإِلَيْكَ ، رَجَاءَ أَنْ لَا يَجْعَلَنِي اللَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ ، فَقَالَ لِي ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ : تَصَدَّقِي بِهِ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى وَلَدِي ، فَإِنَّا لَهُ مَوْضِعٌ ، فَقُلْتُ : حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تَصَدَّقِي بِهِ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى بَنِيهِ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَهُ مَوْضِعٌ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَرَأَيْتَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْكَ حِينَ وَقَفْتَ عَلَيْنَا : " مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَوَاقِصِ عُقُولٍ قَطُّ وَلَا دِينٍ أَذْهَبَ بِقُلُوبِ ذَوِي الْأَلْبَابِ مِنْكُنَّ " ، قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَمَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِنَا وَعُقُولِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ : " أَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتُ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِكُنَّ : فَالْحَيْضَةُ الَّتِي تُصِيبُكُنَّ ، تَمْكُثُ إِحْدَاكُنَّ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تَمْكُثَ لَا تُصَلِّي وَلَا تَصُومُ ، فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِكُنَّ ، وَأَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتُ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ عُقُولِكُنَّ : فَشَهَادَتُكُنَّ ، إِنَّمَا شَهَادَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ نِصْفُ شَهَادَةٍ " .
Narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) offered the Fajr prayer and, upon returning, passed by the women present in the mosque, stopped there, and said: "O group of women, I have not seen any creature more deficient in intelligence and religion, yet more capable of seizing the hearts of wise men, than you. And I have seen that on the Day of Resurrection, the majority of the people of Hell will be from among you. Therefore, give charity as much as you can to seek nearness to Allah." Among those women was the wife of Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him). She went home and narrated the saying of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and took her jewelry to leave. Hazrat Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "Where are you taking this?" She replied, "I wish to seek nearness to Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) through this, so that Allah does not make me among the people of Hell." He said, "Bring it to me and give it in charity to me and my child, for we are deserving of it." His wife said, "By Allah, this cannot be. I will take it to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself." So she went and sought permission to enter the house of Prophethood. People said, "O Messenger of Allah! Zainab seeks permission." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Which Zainab?" (as this was the name of several women). The people replied, "The wife of Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him)." He said, "Allow her to enter." So she entered and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I heard a hadith from you. When I returned to my husband Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), I narrated that hadith to him and took my jewelry to come, so that I may seek nearness to Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), hoping that Allah will not count me among the people of Hell. Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me, 'Give it in charity to me and my child, for we are deserving of it.' I told him that I would first seek permission from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Give it to them in charity, for they are indeed deserving of it." Then she said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), please tell me, when you stood among us, I heard you say another thing: 'I have not seen any creature more capable of seizing the hearts of wise men, yet more deficient in intelligence and religion, than you.' O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what is meant by deficiency in our religion and intelligence?" He said, "Do you not remember the deficiency in your religion? Those days that come upon you, and as long as Allah wills, you remain in that state, you cannot perform prayer or fast; this is the deficiency in religion. As for the deficiency in intelligence, it is that the testimony of a woman is half that of a man."
