Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 1047
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ بَهْرَامَ، عَنْ شَهْرٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَسْمَاءَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَرَّ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، وَعُصْبَةٌ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ قُعُودٌ، قَالَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَيْهِنَّ بِالسَّلاَمِ، فَقَالَ: إِيَّاكُنَّ وَكُفْرَانَ الْمُنْعِمِينَ، إِيَّاكُنَّ وَكُفْرَانَ الْمُنْعِمِينَ، قَالَتْ إِحْدَاهُنَّ: نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ، يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، مِنْ كُفْرَانِ نِعَمِ اللهِ، قَالَ: بَلَى إِنَّ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَطُولُ أَيْمَتُهَا، ثُمَّ تَغْضَبُ الْغَضْبَةَ فَتَقُولُ: وَاللَّهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْهُ سَاعَةً خَيْرًا قَطُّ، فَذَلِكَ كُفْرَانُ نِعَمِ اللهِ، وَذَلِكَ كُفْرَانُ نِعَمِ الْمُنْعِمِينَ.

Asma reported: The Prophet ﷺ passed through the mosque while a group of women were seated. He gestured a greeting to them with his hand and said, “Beware of ingratitude toward those who bestow blessings. Beware of ingratitude toward those who bestow blessings.” One of them said, “We seek refuge in Allah, O Prophet of Allah, from being ungrateful for Allah’s blessings.” He said, “Indeed, one of you may remain without a husband for a long time, then become angry and say, ‘By Allah, I have never seen an hour of good from him!’ That is ingratitude for Allah’s blessings; that is ingratitude toward those who bestow blessings.”
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The expression تَطُولُ أَيْمَتُهَا refers to a prolonged period without a husband; the text does not specify further circumstances.
تَطُولُ أَيْمَتُهَا
The witness inserts an explanatory parenthesis absent from the Arabic.
Should the parenthetical explanation be removed?
بِيَدِهِ إِلَيْهِنَّ
The Arabic says he gestured to them in greeting; the English witness is malformed.
Should this be rendered as a hand gesture of greeting?
