'Amra reported that 'A'isha had made one of her slavegirls a mudabbar
(one who would be set free after her death). Then 'A'isha became ill and
her nephews consulted a gypsy doctor. He said, "You are asking me for information
about a bewitched woman. A slavegirl of hers has bewitched her." 'A'isha
was told and asked the girl, "Have you put a spell on me?" "Yes," she replied.
"Why?' she asked. "Because you will never free me," she answered. Then
'A'isha said, "Sell her to the worst masters among the Arabs."
