Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

Ibn al-Madini said, “That is how he reported it.”

In my view, however, the correct name is ʿAwf ibn al-Hārith ibn al-Tufayl⦗1⦘ ibn Sakhbarah. The same wording was transmitted by Ṣāliḥ ibn Kaysān from al-Zuhri, and Maʿmar corroborated him.

ʿAṭāʾ ibn Abī Rabāḥ said, “ʿĀʾishah was the most knowledgeable of people and had the best opinion in matters that concerned the general public.”

Al-Zuhri said, “If the knowledge of ʿĀʾishah were combined with the knowledge of all women, her knowledge would still be superior.”⦗2⦘

Hafṣ ibn Ghiyāth related: Ismāʿīl narrated to us from Abū Isḥāq, who said:
Masrūq remarked, “Were it not for certain considerations, I would have established lamentation for the Mother of the Believers—meaning ʿĀʾishah.”⦗3⦘

ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿUbayd ibn ʿUmayr said, “No one will truly grieve for her except someone for whom she was a mother.”⦗4⦘

Al-Qāsim ibn ʿAbd al-Wāḥid ibn Ayman reported: ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿUrwah narrated to us from his grandfather ʿUrwah, from ʿĀʾishah, who said:
“I used to boast of my father’s wealth in the Days of Ignorance—and it was a thousand …”

(1) The report is likewise found in Tahdhib, in al-Bukhari’s al-Tarikh al-Kabir 7/57, and in al-Jarh wa al-Taʿdil 7/14. (2) Al-Haythami cites it in Majmaʿ al-Zawaʾid 9/243, attributes it to al-Tabarani, and remarks that its transmitters are trustworthy. It is also recorded in al-Mustadrak 4/11. (3) Ibn Saʿd transmits it 8/78; by the phrase “part of the affair” he is referring to her departure for the Battle of the Camel. (4) Ibn Saʿd records it 8/78 through the isnad of Harun al-Barbari from ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿUbayd ibn ʿUmayr, who relates: “A man arrived and my father asked him, ‘How strongly did people resent ʿAʾisha?’ He replied, ‘There was resentment, and there was not.’ My father then said, ‘Know that none sorrows for her except one for whom she was a mother.’”
قَالَ ابْنُ المَدِيْنِيِّ: كَذَا قَالَ. وَالصَّوَابُ عِنْدِي: عَوْفُ بنُ الحَارِثِ بنِ الطُّفَيْلِ (١) بنِ سَخْبَرَةَ. وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ: صَالِحُ بنُ كَيْسَانَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، وَتَابَعَهُ: مَعْمَرٌ. قَالَ عَطَاءُ بنُ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ: كَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ أَفْقَهَ النَّاسِ، وَأَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ رَأْياً فِي العَامَّةِ. وَقَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: لَوْ جُمِعَ عِلْمُ عَائِشَةَ إِلَى عِلْمِ جَمِيْعِ النِّسَاءِ، لَكَانَ عِلْمُ عَائِشَةَ أَفْضَلَ (٢) . قَالَ حَفْصُ بنُ غِيَاثٍ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيْلُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: قَالَ مَسْرُوْقٌ: لَوْلاَ بَعْضُ الأَمْرِ، لأَقَمْتُ المَنَاحَةَ عَلَى أُمِّ المُؤْمِنِيْنَ -يَعْنِي: عَائِشَةَ (٣) -. وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بنِ عُبَيْدِ بنِ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ: أَمَا إِنَّهُ لاَ يَحْزَنُ عَلَيْهَا إِلاَّ مَنْ كَانَتْ أُمَّهُ (٤) . القَاسِمُ بنُ عَبْدِ الوَاحِدِ بنِ أَيْمَنَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: فَخَرْتُ بِمَالِ أَبِي فِي الجَاهِلِيَّةِ - وَكَانَ أَلْفَ
(١) وكذلك هو في " التهذيب " والتاريخ الكبير للبخاري ٧ / ٥٧، و" الجرح والتعديل " ٧ / ١٤. (٢) ذكره الهيثمي في " المجمع " ٩ / ٢٤٣، ونسبه للطبراني، وقال: رجاله ثقات، وهو في " المستدرك " ٤ / ١١. (٣) أخرجه ابن سعد ٨ / ٧٨ ويريد بقوله: بعض الامر: خروجها إلى حرب الجمل. (٤) أخرجه ابن سعد ٨ / ٧٨ من طريق هارون البربري، عن عبد الله بن عبيد بن عمير، قال: قدم رجل، فسأله أبي: كيف كان وجد الناس على عائشة؟ فقال: كان فيهم وكان. قال: اما إنه لا يحزن عليها إلا من كانت أمه.
