وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ أُمَيْمَةَ بِنْتِ رُقَيْقَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي نِسْوَةٍ بَايَعْنَهُ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَقُلْنَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نُبَايِعُكَ عَلَى أَنْ لاَ نُشْرِكَ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا وَلاَ نَسْرِقَ وَلاَ نَزْنِيَ وَلاَ نَقْتُلَ أَوْلاَدَنَا وَلاَ نَأْتِيَ بِبُهْتَانٍ نَفْتَرِيهِ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَأَرْجُلِنَا وَلاَ نَعْصِيَكَ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُنَّ وَأَطَقْتُنَّ " . قَالَتْ فَقُلْنَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَرْحَمُ بِنَا مِنْ أَنْفُسِنَا هَلُمَّ نُبَايِعْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنِّي لاَ أُصَافِحُ النِّسَاءَ إِنَّمَا قَوْلِي لِمِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ كَقَوْلِي لاِمْرَأَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ أَوْ مِثْلِ قَوْلِي لاِمْرَأَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ " .


Malik related to me from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir that Umaymabint Ruqayqa said, "I went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah blesshim and grant him peace, with the women who took an oath of allegiancewith him in Islam. They said, 'Messenger of Allah! We take a pledgewith you not to associate anything with Allah, not to steal, not tocommit adultery, not to kill our children, nor to produce any lie thatwe have devised between our hands and feet, and not to disobey you inwhat is known.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and granthim peace, said, 'In what you can do and are able.' "Umaymacontinued, "They said, 'Allah and His Messenger are more merciful tous than ourselves. Come, let us give our hands to you, Messenger ofAllah!' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, said, 'I do not shake hands with women. My word to a hundredwomen is like my word to one woman.' "
