Takhrij Hadith 221: "A woman gestured from behind…"
Narrated by ‘Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) :
“
A woman gestured from behind a curtain with her hand, holding a letter for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ closed his hand and said: “I do not know whether this is the hand of a man or the hand of a woman.” She said: “Rather, it is the hand of a woman.” He ﷺ said: “If you were a woman, you would have colored your nails. ,” meaning with henna.”
