Benefits of the Hadith: (… then Ibn Abbas said, “This is the wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When you lift her bier, do not shake it or jolt it, and be gentle.”)

The Shaykh : The first wording contains evidence for respecting the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after their deaths, due to Ibn Abbas’s statement, “This is the wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).” It also indicates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not share his time with one of them, the ninth. As for Ata’s statement that it was Safiyyah bint Huyayy, there is no doubt that this is a mistake, because the one with whom he did not share his time was Sawdah. Yes.
