حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْأَقْمَرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ حَسْبُكَ مِنْ صَفِيَّةَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ غَيْرُ مُسَدَّدٍ تَعْنِي قَصِيرَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَقَدْ قُلْتِ كَلِمَةً لَوْ مُزِجَتْ بِمَاءِ الْبَحْرِ لَمَزَجَتْهُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ وَحَكَيْتُ لَهُ إِنْسَانًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنِّي حَكَيْتُ إِنْسَانًا وَأَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا .

I said to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم: It is enough for you in Safiyyah رضی اللہ عنہا that she is such and such (the other version than Musaddad's has: ) meaning that she was short-statured. He replied; You have said a word which would change the sea if it were mixed in it. She said: I imitated a man before him (out of disgrace). He said: I do not like that I imitate anyone even if I should get such and such.
