حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً يَهُودِيَّةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَاةٍ مَسْمُومَةٍ فَأَکَلَ مِنْهَا فَجِيئَ بِهَا إِلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِکَ فَقَالَتْ أَرَدْتُ لِأَقْتُلَکَ فَقَالَ مَا کَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُسَلِّطَکِ عَلَی ذَلِکَ أَوْ قَالَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالُوا أَلَا نَقْتُلُهَا قَالَ لَا فَمَا زِلْتُ أَعْرِفُهَا فِي لَهَوَاتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4508
Narrated Anas bin Malik: A Jewess brought a poisoned sheep to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he ate of it. She was then brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who asked her about it. She said: I intended to kill you. He said: Allah will not give you control over it ; or he said: over me. They (the Companions) said: Should we not kill her ? He said: No. He (Anas) said: I always found it in the uvula of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
