و حَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَيْلِيُّ وَأَبُو الطَّاهِرِ قَالَ أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ أَخْبَرَنَا و قَالَ هَارُونُ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِکٌ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ عَنْ بَيْعَةِ النِّسَائِ قَالَتْ مَا مَسَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ امْرَأَةً قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْخُذَ عَلَيْهَا فَإِذَا أَخَذَ عَلَيْهَا فَأَعْطَتْهُ قَالَ اذْهَبِي فَقَدْ بَايَعْتُکِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4835
It has been narrated on the authority of 'Urwa that 'A'isha described to him the way the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) took the oath of fealty from women. She said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) never touched a woman with his hand. He would only take a vow from her and when he had taken the (verbal) vow, he would say: You may go. I have accepted your fealty.
