حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّائِ عَنْ عِکْرِمَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ مُغِيثًا کَانَ عَبْدًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اشْفَعْ لِي إِلَيْهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا بَرِيرَةُ اتَّقِي اللَّهَ فَإِنَّهُ زَوْجُکِ وَأَبُو وَلَدِکِ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَأْمُرُنِي بِذَلِکَ قَالَ لَا إِنَّمَا أَنَا شَافِعٌ فَکَانَ دُمُوعُهُ تَسِيلُ عَلَی خَدِّهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْعَبَّاسِ أَلَا تَعْجَبُ مِنْ حُبِّ مُغِيثٍ بَرِيرَةَ وَبُغْضِهَا إِيَّاهُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2231
Ibn Abbas said “Mughith was a slave. ” He said “Messenger of Allah ﷺ make intercession for me to her (Barirah)”. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said “O Barirah fear Allaah. He is your husband and father of your child”. She said “Messenger of Allah ﷺ do you command me for that? He said No, I am only interceding. Then tears were falling down on his (her husband’s) cheeks. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abbas “Are you not surprised with the love of Mughith for Barirah and her hatred for him. ”
