5197 - He said: Ruwh ibn Ubadah narrated to us, saying: Abu Na'amh al-Adawi narrated to us, saying: Humaid ibn Hilal narrated to us from Hujayr ibn al-Rabi' that Imran ibn Husayn sent him to the Bani Adi, saying: "Gather together all that you can in their mosque, and that will be around mid-afternoon, and stand up." So he stood up and said: "Imran ibn Husayn, a companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), has sent me to you to convey peace and mercy from Allah and to inform you that I am a sincere adviser to you. And he swears by Allah, who has no deity but Him, that it is better for him to be a servant from Abyssinia, with mutilated limbs, tending to female goats in the top of a mountain until death reaches him, than to throw a stone at either of the two groups, whether he misses or hits." So hold back; my father and mother be a ransom for you."

Then the people raised their heads and said: "Leave us be, you young man, for by Allah, we will not forsake the residue of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) for anything, ever." And they marched on the Day of Jamal and many, by Allah, were killed around Aisha that day—seventy, all of whom had memorized the Quran. He added: And those who had not memorized the Quran were more.

Chapter on Clarifying the Ambiguous Regarding What was Narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) from His Saying to His Wives: "Which of you will be the owner of the sway-backed camel?"
And from His Saying to Ali: "There will be something between you and Aisha, and when that happens, convey to her what she is safe from."

5611 - Fahd ibn Suleiman narrated to us, who said: Abu Na'im narrated to us, who said: Issam ibn Qudamah narrated to us, from Ikrimah from Ibn Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said to His Wives: "Which of you will be the owner of the sway-backed camel, who will go out and be barked at by the dogs of Haw'ab? Many will be killed on her right and left, but she will escape after having been close to it." Abu Ja'far said: Thus, the people of hadith say in this mentioned instance that the barking of the dogs is in Haw'ab, with "Haw'ab" being in the nominative case. However, the grammarians all say it should be in the accusative case, and they will recite in this regard:
"It is nothing but a sip in Haw'ab, * so ascend from it or move towards it afterward."
Someone said: This hadith indicates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) did not know which of His Wives that would be, while you narrate from him (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) indications to the contrary.
