264 - 'Abd al-Malik al-Maymuni informed me, saying: Abu 'Abd Allah [Ahmad ibn Hanbal] said regarding the hadith of Khusayf, from Mujahid, [who said]: "I heard the voice of 'Aisha saying to the women: 'You must observe the Hijr, for it is part of the House [the Ka'bah].'" Abu 'Abd Allah said: "This confirms that he heard it from her."
