3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father Muhammad ibn ‘Isma’il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj in a marfu’ manner has said the following
“Once the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, was sitting that a nude woman came until she stood right in front of him and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, I have sinned, so cleanse me.’ He (the narrator) has said that after her a man came running and threw a cloth on her. He (the Messenger of Allah) asked about the relation between the two of them.’ He replied, ‘She is my companion (wife), O Messenger of Allah. I went to bed with my slave-girl, and then she did what you have seen.’ He (the Messenger of Allah) then said, ‘The egotistic, or jealous cannot distinguish between the top and the bottom of the valley.’”
3- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ
بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) قَاعِدٌ إِذْ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ عُرْيَانَةٌ حَتَّى قَامَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي فَجَرْتُ فَطَهِّرْنِي قَالَ وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَعْدُو فِي أَثَرِهَا وَأَلْقَى عَلَيْهَا ثَوْباً فَقَالَ مَا هِيَ مِنْكَ فَقَالَ صَاحِبَتِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ خَلَوْتُ بِجَارِيَتِي فَصَنَعَتْ مَا تَرَى فَقَالَ ضُمَّهَا إِلَيْكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الْغَيْرَاءَ لا تُبْصِرُ أَعْلَى الْوَادِي مِنْ أَسْفَلِهِ.
