Yahya bin Muhammad bin Sa'id narrates from his father that a dispute arose between Ibn Abi al-Furat, the freed slave of Usamah bin Zayd, and al-Hasan bin Usamah. During the exchange Ibn Abi al-Furat said to him (mockingly): O son of Barakah! (By this he meant Umm Ayman.) Al-Hasan said: Bear witness, all of you. Then he took the matter to Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin Amr bin Hazm, who was the judge of Madinah at that time, and related the whole incident. Abu Bakr asked Ibn Abi al-Furat: What did you mean by calling him "O son of Barakah"? He said: I only called her by her name. Abu Bakr said: Your intention by this was to insult and belittle her, although her standing in Islam is very high, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) himself used to address her as "O my mother!" and "O Umm Ayman". May Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, not pardon me if I pardon you. So he sentenced him to seventy lashes.
