Ayesha reported,

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Satirize Quraysh, for it is harder upon them than a volley of arrows."So he sent for Ibn Rawahah and said, "Satirize them." He satirized them, but the Prophet was not satisfied. Then he sent for Kaab bin Malik, then he sent for Hassan bin Thabit.When Hassan came in to him, he said, "It is about time you sent for this lion who strikes with his tail." Then he stuck out his tongue and began to move it about, saying, "By the One who sent you with the truth, I will tear them apart with my tongue as leather is torn."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not be hasty. Abu Bakr knows the lineages of Quraysh better than anyone, and I have a lineage among them. Let him sort out my lineage for you first."Hassan went to Abu Bakr, then returned and said, "Messenger of Allah, he has clarified your lineage for me. By the One who sent you with the truth, I will pull you out from among them as a hair is pulled out of dough."Ayesha said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say to Hassan, 'The Holy Spirit will continue to support you so long as you defend Allah and His Messenger.'"She also said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Hassan satirized them, and so he healed and was healed.'"Hassan said:I satirized Muhammad and answered on his behalf, and with Allah lies the recompense for that.I satirized Muhammad, the righteous, the pious, the Messenger of Allah whose nature is fidelity.So my father, his father, and my own honor are a shield for the honor of Muhammad against you.May I lose my little daughter if you do not see her, stirring up the dust from the two sides of Kada,Racing with the reins, climbing upward, upon their shoulders the thirsty spear-points.Our steeds keep galloping forth, while the women strike them with their veils.If you turn away from us, we will perform the umrah, and the conquest will come and the veil will be lifted.Otherwise, brace yourselves for a day of striking in which Allah grants honor to whomever He wills.Allah has said, "I have sent a servant who speaks the truth, in which there is no concealment."And Allah has said, "I have prepared an army," they are the Ansar, whose vocation is to meet the foe.Every day from Maad we face abuse, or fighting, or satire.Whoever among you satirizes the Messenger of Allah, or praises him, or supports him, are not equal.Jibril, the messenger of Allah, is among us, and the Holy Spirit who has no peer.

عن عائشة

أن رسول الله ﷺ قال: اهجو قريشا، فإنه أشد عليها من رشق بالنبل فأرسل إلى ابن رواحة فقال: اهجهم فهجاهم فلم يرض، فأرسل إلى كعب بن مالك، ثم أرسل إلى حسان بن ثابت، فلما دخل عليه قال حسان: قد آن لكم أن ترسلوا إلى هذا الأسد الضارب بذنبه، ثم أدلع لسانه فجعل يحركه، فقال: والذي بعثك بالحق لأفرينهم بلساني فري الأديم. فقال رسول الله ﷺ: لا تعجل؛ فإن أبا بكر أعلم قريش بأنسابها، وإن لي فيهم نسبا، حتى يلخص لك نسبي. فأتاه حسان، ثم رجع فقال: يا رسول الله، قد لخص لي نسبك، والذي بعثك بالحق، لأسلنك منهم كما تسل الشعرة من العجين. قالت عائشة: فسمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول لحسان: إن روح القدس لا يزال يؤيدك ما نافحت عن الله ورسوله. وقالت سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: هجاهم حسان فشفي واشتفى. قال حسان: هجوت محمدا فأجبت عنه… وعند الله في ذاك الجزاء هجوت محمدا برا تقيا… رسول الله شيمته الوفاء فإن أبي ووالده وعرضي… لعرض محمد منكم وقاء ثكلت بنيتي إن لم تروها… تثير النقع من كنفي كداء يبارين الأعنة مصعدات… على أكتافها الأسل الظماء تظل جيادنا متمطرات… تلطمهن بالخمر النساء فإن أعرضتمو عنا اعتمرنا… وكان الفتح وانكشف الغطاء وإلا فاصبروا الضراب يوم. يعز الله فيه من يشاء وقال الله قد أرسلت عبدا… يقول الحق ليس به خفاء وقال الله قد يسرت جندا… هم الأنصار عرضتها اللقاء لنا في كل يوم من معد… سباب أو قتال أو هجاء فمن يهجو رسول الله منكم… ويمدحه وينصره سواء وجبريل رسول الله فينا… وروح القدس ليس له كفاء.
