Musnad of the truthful one, Aisha bint al-Siddiq (RA)
مسند الصديقة عائشة بنت الصديق رضي الله عنها
Hadith 1153:117
Sufyan narrated to us, Yahya narrated to us, from the nephew of ‘Amrah—and I do not know if it was this one or another—from ‘Amrah, who said: ‘Aishah fell ill, and her illness lasted a long time. A man came to Medina practicing medicine, so her nephews went to ask him about her ailment. He said: "By Allah, you are describing the symptoms of a woman who has been bewitched. This woman is bewitched; a slave girl of hers has bewitched her." She [‘Aishah] said: "Yes, she wanted me to die so that she would be set free." It was said that she was a *mudabbarah* (a slave promised freedom upon the master's death). She [‘Aishah] said: "Sell her to the harshest of the Arabs in ownership, and use the price of her to purchase the likes of her."
حدثنا سفيان، حدثنا يحيى، عن ابن أخي عمرة، ولا أدري هذا أو غيره، عن عمرة قالت: اشتكت عائشة فطال شكواها، فقدم إنسان المدينة يتطبب، فذهب بنو أخيها يسألونه، عن وجعها، فقال: والله إنكم تنعتون نعت امرأة مطبوبة، قال: هذه امرأة مسحورة سحرتها جارية لها ، قالت: نعم أردت أن تموتي فأعتق، قال: وكانت مدبرة، قالت: " بيعوها في أشد العرب ملكة، واجعلوا ثمنها في مثلها "
