حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي. ح وحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ،‏‏‏‏ الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُنْتُ أَسْأَلُ عَنِ الِانْتِصَارِ وَلَمَنِ انْتَصَرَ بَعْدَ ظُلْمِهِ فَأُولَئِكَ مَا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ سَبِيلٍ [سورة الشورى آية 41]،‏‏‏‏ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ جُدْعَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّ مُحَمَّدٍ امْرَأَةِ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ:‏‏‏‏ وَزَعَمُوا أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَدْخُلُ عَلَى أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَتْ أُمُّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ:‏‏‏‏ دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ ّرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعِنْدَنَا زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَعَلَ يَصْنَعُ شَيْئًا بِيَدِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى فَطَّنْتُهُ لَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمْسَكَ وَأَقْبَلَتْ زَيْنَبُ تَقَحَّمُ لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَنَهَاهَا فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَنْتَهِيَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لِعَائِشَةَ:‏‏‏‏ سُبِّيهَا فَسَبَّتْهَا فَغَلَبَتْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْطَلَقَتْ زَيْنَبُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا وَقَعَتْ بِكُمْ وَفَعَلَتْ فَجَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهَا:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّهَا حِبَّةُ أَبِيكِ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ فَانْصَرَفَتْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ لَهُمْ:‏‏‏‏ أَنِّي قُلْتُ لَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لِي:‏‏‏‏ كَذَا وَكَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَكَلَّمَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ.

I asked about the meaning of intisar (revenge) in the Quranic verse: But indeed if any do help and defend themselves (intasara) after a wrong (done) to them, against them there is no cause of blame. Then Ali bin Zayd bin Jad'an told me on the authority of Umm Muhammad, the wife of his father. Ibn Awn said: It was believed that she used to go to the Mother of the Faithful (i. e. Aishah). She said: The Mother of the Faithful said: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم came upon me while Zaynab رضی اللہ عنہا, daughter of Jahsh, was with us. He began to do something with his hand. I signaled to him until I made him understand about her. So he stopped. Zaynab came on and began to abuse Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا. She tried to prevent her but she did not stop. So he (the Prophet) said to Aishah: Abuse her. So she abused her and dominated her. Zaynab رضی اللہ عنہا then went to Ali رضی اللہ عنہ and said: Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا abused you and did (such and such). Then Fatimah رضی اللہ عنہاd came (to the Prophet) and he said to her: She is the favourite of your father, by the Lord of the Kabah! She then returned and said to them: I said to him such and such, and he said to me such and such. Then Ali رضی اللہ عنہ came to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم and spoke to him about that.
