Salma, the freed servant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, or rather the wife of Abu Rafi, the freed servant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ seeking his intervention against Abu Rafi, who had struck her.She said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abu Rafi, "What is between you and her, Abu Rafi?"He replied, "She has been hurting me, Messenger of Allah."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then asked, "How have you hurt him, Salma?"She said, "Messenger of Allah, I have not hurt him in any way. But he passed wind while he was praying, so I said to him, 'Abu Rafi, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has commanded the Muslims that when one of them passes wind, he should perform ablution.' At that he got up and struck me."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to laugh and said, "Abu Rafi, she only commanded you to do what is good."
حدثنا يعقوب قال حدثنا أبي عن ابن إسحاق قال حدثني هشام بن عروة عن أبيه
أتت سلمى مولاة رسول الله ﷺ أو امرأة أبي رافع مولى رسول الله ﷺ إلى رسول الله ﷺ تستأذنه على أبي رافع قد ضربها قالت قال رسول الله ﷺ لأبي رافع ما لك ولها يا أبا رافع قال تؤذيني يا رسول الله فقال رسول الله ﷺ بم آذيتيه يا سلمى قالت يا رسول الله ما آذيته بشيء ولكنه أحدث وهو يصلي فقلت له يا أبا رافع إن رسول الله ﷺ قد أمر المسلمين إذا خرج من أحدهم الريح أن يتوضأ فقام فضربني فجعل رسول الله ﷺ يضحك ويقول يا أبا رافع إنها لم تأمرك إلا بخير
