Hadith 1525

Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi

وعن عائشة رضي الله عنها‏:‏ قالت قلت للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حسبك من صفية كذا وكذا‏.‏ قال بعض الرواة‏:‏ تعني قصيرة، فقال‏:‏ ‏"‏لقد قلت كلمة لو مُزجت بماء البحر لمزجته‏!‏‏"‏ قالت‏:‏ وحكيت له إنسانًا فقال‏:‏ “ما أحب أني حكيت إنسانًا وإن لي كذا وكذا”‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود والترمذي وقال حديث حسن صحيح‏.‏‏)‏‏)‏ ومعني‏:‏ ‏"‏مزجته‏"‏ خالطته مخالطة يتغير بها طعمه، أو ريحه لشدة نتنها وقبحها، وهذا الحديث من أبلغ الزواجر عن الغيبة، قال الله تعالى‏:‏ ‏{‏وما ينطق عن الهوى، إن هو إلا وحي يوحى‏}‏‏.‏

I said to the Prophet (ﷺ): "Such and such thing of Safiyyah (May Allah be pleased with her) is sufficient for you." (She means to say that she was a woman with a short stature). He said, "You have indeed uttered a word which would pollute the sea if it were mixed in it." She further said: I imitated a person before him and he said, "I do not like that I should imitate someone even (if I am paid) in return such and such." [Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
