حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِکٌ عَنْ يَحْيَی بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ لَوْ أَدْرَکَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَائُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ کَمَا مُنِعَتْ نِسَائُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قُلْتُ لِعَمْرَةَ أَوَمُنِعْنَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 869
Narrated `Aisha: Had Allah's Apostle known what the women were doing, he would have forbidden them from going to the mosque as the women of Bani Israel had been forbidden. Yahya bin Sa`id (a sub-narrator) asked `Amra (another sub-narrator), "Were the women of Bani Israel forbidden?" She replied "Yes."
