The Insult of the Goldsmith of Kaynuka
Shortly after the Prophet‟s visit to the market place of the Kaynuka, a Muslim lady made
her way to that same market and was insulted in a despicable manner by a goldsmith
who then tied the hem of her dress to her back so that as soon as she stood up her
privates became exposed. An Ansar happened to see the disgraceful behavior and
came to her assistance. Sharp words were exchanged which ultimately led to blows
during which the goldsmith fell and was accidentally killed.
Once again the Jews who had agreed that such matters were to be brought before the
Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) to be resolved, threw the agreement to the wind
and prepared to fight against the Muslims.
