Um Ruman رضی اللہ عنہا , the mother of `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا said that while `Aisha and she were sitting, an Ansari woman came and said, "May Allah harm such and-such a person!" Um Ruman رضی اللہ عنہا said to her, What is the matter?" She replied, "My son was amongst those who talked of the story (of the Slander)." Um Ruman رضی اللہ عنہا said, "What is that?" She said, "So-and-so...." and narrated the whole story. On that `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا said, "Did Allah's Apostle hear about that?" She replies, "yes." `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا further said, "And Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ too?" She replied, "Yes." On that, `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا fell down fainting, and when she came to her senses, she had got fever with rigors. I put her clothes over her and covered her. The Prophet (ﷺ) came and asked, "What is wrong with this (lady)?" Um Ruman رضی اللہ عنہا replied, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! She (i.e. `Aisha) has got temperature with rigors." He said, "Perhaps it is because of the story that has been talked about?" She said, "Yes." `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا sat up and said, "By Allah, if I took an oath (that I am innocent), you would not believe me, and if I said (that I am not innocent), you would not excuse me. My and your example is like that of Jacob and his sons (as Jacob said ): 'It is Allah (Alone) Whose Help can be sought against that you assert.' Um Ruman رضی اللہ عنہا said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) then went out saying nothing. Then Allah declared her innocence. On that, `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا said (to the Prophet), "I thank Allah only; thank neither anybody else nor you."
