Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sayyidah Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) heard that Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) had said, "This Safiyyah is the daughter of a Jew." Upon hearing this, she began to weep. When the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to her and found her crying, he said, "What has happened to you?" She replied, "Hafsah has said about me that I am the daughter of a Jew." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You are the daughter of a Prophet, your uncle was also a Prophet, and you are the wife of a Prophet. So on what basis does Hafsah take pride over you?" Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Hafsah! Fear Allah."
