She replied, ‘Give him a thorough beating, for an orphan is more entitled to such a beating than a serpent.’”
٦٣٢ - وَبِهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ، عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ الرَّقَاشِيَّةِ، عَنْ جَدَّتِهَا خَوْلَةَ قَالَتْ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ ﵂ عَنْ ضَرْبِ الْيَتِيمِ فَقَالَتْ: أَثْلِغِيهِ فَإِنَّ الْيَتِيمَ أَحَقُّ بِالثَّلْغِ مِنَ الْأَفْعَى
