حَدَّثَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ حَسَّانُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي هِجَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، قَالَ ‏ "‏ كَيْفَ بِنَسَبِي ‏"‏‏.‏ فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ لأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ‏.‏ وَعَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ ذَهَبْتُ أَسُبُّ حَسَّانَ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ لاَ تَسُبُّهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُنَافِحُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏

Narrated `Aisha:Once Hassan bin Thabit asked the permission of the Prophet (ﷺ) to lampoon (i.e. compose satirical poetry defaming) the infidels. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What about the fact that I have common descent with them?" Hassan replied, "I shall take you out of them as a hair is taken out of dough." Narrated `Urwa: I started abusing Hassan in front of `Aisha, whereupon she said. "Don't abuse him, for he used to defend the Prophet (with his poetry)

Ayesha bataati hain: Ek baar Hassan bin Thabit ne Nabi se kaafiron ke khilaf taana (vyangatmak kavita) likhne ki ijazat maangi. Nabi ne kaha, "Iska kya jawab dena hai ke mera unse saanjha vansh hai?" Hassan ne jawab diya, "Main aapko unme se aise nikaalunga jaise aate se ek baal nikala jata hai." Urwa bataate hain: Main Ayesha ke saamne Hassan ki buraee karna shuru kiya, isspar unhone kaha, "Unki buraee mat karo, kyunke woh Nabi ki (apni kavita se) hifaazat karte the."
