4634 - وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ : أَنَّهُ لَمَّا بَايَعَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ اَلنِّسَاءَ وَ أَخَذَ عَلَيْهِنَّ دَعَا بِإِنَاءٍ فَمَلَأَهُ ثُمَّ غَمَسَ يَدَهُ فِي اَلْإِنَاءِ ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَهَا فَأَمَرَهُنَّ أَنْ يُدْخِلْنَ أَيْدِيَهُنَّ فَيَغْمِسْنَ فِيهِ وَ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَى اَلنِّسَاءِ وَ يَرْدُدْنَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمَ وَ كَانَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَى اَلنِّسَاءِ وَ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ عَلَى اَلشَّابَّةِ مِنْهُنَّ وَ قَالَ "أَتَخَوَّفُ أَنْ يُعْجِبَنِي صَوْتُهَا فَيَدْخُلَ مِنَ اَلْإِثْمِ عَلَيَّ أَكْثَرُ مِمَّا أَطْلُبُ مِنَ اَلْأَجْرِ".
Hadith.4634 - In a narration from Rabi' ibn Abdullah:
When the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) took the pledge of allegiance from the women, he brought a vessel, filled it with water, and dipped his hand into it. Then he withdrew his hand and instructed the women to dip their hands into the vessel and immerse them.
He 
would greet women, and they would return the greeting. Commander of the Faithful would also greet women but disliked greeting young women.
Imam said: "I fear that their voice might please me, and thereby I would fall into sin greater than the reward I seek."
