Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْأَقْمَرِ عَنْ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا ذَكَرَتْ امْرَأَةً وَقَالَتْ مَرَّةً حَكَتْ امْرَأَةً وَقَالَتْ إِنَّهَا قَصِيرَةٌ فَقَالَ اغْتَبْتِهَا مَا أُحِبُّ أَنِّي حَكَيْتُ أَحَدًا وَأَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا.
English Translation
Waki' narrated to us, he said: Sufyan narrated to us, from Ali ibn al-Aqmar, from Abu Hudhayfah, from Aisha, that she mentioned a woman - and once said she imitated a woman - and said that she was short of stature. He said, "You have backbitten her. I would not like to imitate anyone, even were I given such-and-such."
