Summary
Malik transmits from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir, from Umayma bint Ruqayqa, that she said: I went to the Messenger of God ﷺ with some women who came to pledge allegiance to him on Islam. They stipulated that they would not associate anything with God, would not steal, would not commit adultery, would not kill their children, would not bring a slander they invent, and would not disobey him in what is right. He said: as far as you are able and capable. Then they offered to pledge allegiance by hand, and he said that he does not shake hands with women; and that his word to a hundred women is the same as his word to one woman. 1
