MORE ON HIS WIFE SAFIYAH
by wada pav on Mar 20, 2007 04:07 AM   Permalink

Tabari VIII:121/Ishaq:515



"Ali struck the Jew with a swift blow that split his helmet, neck protector, and head, landing in his rear teeth. And the Muslims entered the city. Muhammad conquered Qamus, the [Jewish] neighborhood of Abi Huqayq. Safiyah bt. Huyayy was brought to him, and another woman with her. Bilal led them past some of the Jews we had slain including the woman%u2019s dead husband. When she saw them, the woman with Safiyah cried out, slapped her face, and poured dust on her head. When Allah%u2019s Prophet saw her, he said, 'Take this she-devil away from me!'"
