Sahih al-Bukhari 4891 (Book 65, Hadith 411) #4672
Taking Pledge of Allegiance without Physical Contact

SUMMARY: This hadith explains how the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) accepted the pledge of allegiance from believing women without physical contact.

Narrated 'Urwa: Aisha the wife of the Prophet, said, "Allah's Messenger used to examine the believing women who migrated to him in accordance with this Verse: 'O Prophet! When believing women come to you to take the oath of allegiance to you. Verily! Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful'. (60:12) 'Aisha said, "And if any of the believing women accepted the condition (assigned in the above-mentioned Verse), Allah's Messenger would say to her".I have accepted your pledge of allegiance"".He would only say that, for, by Allah, his hand never touched, any lady during that pledge of allegiance. He did not receive their pledge except by saying, "I have accepted your pledge of allegiance for that".
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ يَمْتَحِنُ مَنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِهَذِهِ الآيَةِ، بِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ ‏{‏يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ‏}‏ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ‏{‏غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ‏}‏‏.‏ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَمَنْ أَقَرَّ بِهَذَا الشَّرْطِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ قَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ قَدْ بَايَعْتُكِ ‏"‏‏.‏ كَلاَمًا وَلاَ وَاللَّهِ مَا مَسَّتْ يَدُهُ يَدَ امْرَأَةٍ قَطُّ فِي الْمُبَايَعَةِ، مَا يُبَايِعُهُنَّ إِلاَّ بِقَوْلِهِ ‏"‏ قَدْ بَايَعْتُكِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ‏"‏‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ يُونُسُ وَمَعْمَرٌ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ‏.‏ وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ وَعَمْرَةَ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ accepted the pledge of allegiance from believing women without any physical contact. The verse mentioned in this hadith is from Surah Al-Mumtahanah, which talks about how to accept a pledge of allegiance from believing women who migrated to Madina. According to this hadith, when a woman came to take an oath of allegiance, Allah's Messenger ﷺ would say "I have accepted your pledge" and he never touched her hand during that process. This shows us that even though it was permissible for him to do so, he chose not to out of respect for them and their modesty. It also teaches us that we should always be respectful towards others and maintain proper boundaries in our interactions with them.
