Hadith Number: 8812
حدثنا ابو العباس محمد بن يعقوب، حدثنا بكار بن قتيبة القاضي بمصر، حدثنا صفوان بن عيسى القاضي (5)، حدثنا عوف بن ابي جميلة، عن الحسن، عن ابي بكرة قال: لما كان يوم الجمل اردت ان آتيهم اقاتل معهم، حتى ذكرت حديثا سمعته من رسول الله ﷺ: انه بلغه ان كسرى - او بعض ملوك الاعاجم - مات فولوا امرهم امراة، فقال رسول الله ﷺ:"لا يفلح قوم تملكهم امراة" (1).
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: When the Battle of the Camel took place, I intended to go to them and fight alongside them, until I remembered a hadith that I had heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): (namely that) when the news reached him (peace and blessings be upon him) that Kisra - or one of the kings of the non-Arabs - had died and they had made a woman their ruler, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A people whose reins (of rule) are in the hands of a woman will never succeed."
This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
تخریج الحدیث: «حديث صحيح، وهذا إسناد جيد من أجل صفوان بن عيسى، وقد توبع» [ترقيم الرساله 8812] [ترقيم الشركة 8702]

Hadith-science notes and terminology
Note / Clarification: It occurs like this in all the manuscripts of the book, yet none of those who wrote biographies of Safwan bin 'Isa (who is Abu Muhammad al-Zuhri al-Basri) mentioned that he held the office of judge; so perhaps what occurs here is a slip of the pen by some copyists; and Allah knows best.
(5) كذا وقع في نسخ الكتاب كافة، ولم يذكر أحد ممَّن ترجم لصفوان بن عيسى - وهو أبو محمد الزهري البصري - أنه تولّى القضاء، فلعلَّ ما وقع هنا سبق قلم من بعض النساخ، والله أعلم.
Grading: The hadith is sahih, and this chain is good (jayyid) because of Safwan bin 'Isa, and he has been corroborated.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Al-Hasan is Ibn Abi al-Hasan al-Basri.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Al-Hasan is Ibn Abi al-Hasan al-Basri.
(1) حديث صحيح، وهذا إسناد جيد من أجل صفوان بن عيسى، وقد توبع. الحسن: هو ابن أبي الحسن البصري.
Reference / Source: Al-Bukhari (4425) and (7099) recorded it from 'Uthman bin al-Haytham, from 'Awf bin Abi Jamilah, with this chain. See also what passed at number (4658).
وأخرجه البخاري (4425) و (7099) عن عثمان بن الهيثم، عن عوف بن أبي جميلة، بهذا الإسناد. وانظر ما سلف برقم (4658).
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Al-Hakim's inclusion of it as an addition (istidrak) is an oversight on his part (since it is in al-Bukhari).
واستدراك الحاكم له ذهولٌ منه.
