The Prophet ﷺ commented on the verse "Ask him about the case of the women who cut their hands" [Yusuf 12:50]. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Had it been me, I would have hastened to accept the offer and would not have sought an excuse."
عن النبي ﷺ في قوله: {فسئله ما بال النسوة التي قطعن أيديهن} قال رسول الله ﷺ: لو كنت أنا لأسرعت الإجابة، وما ابتغيت العذر.
Ahmad (8554) narrated it, as did Ibn Jareer in his Tafsir (13/201) and Ibn Abu Hatim in his Tafsir (21556-21557), all of them through Hammad bin Salama, from Muhammad bin Amr, from Abu Salama, from Abu Hurairah, who related it. Its chain is hasan because of Muhammad bin Amr bin Alqama Laythi, for his hadith is hasan.
