Narrated Abu Hurairah: That the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Indeed a woman grants (assurances of protection) to a people" - meaning it is to be honored - "from the Muslims." There is something on this topic from Umm Hani, and this Hadith is Hasan Gharib. I asked Muhammad and he said: "This Hadith is Sahih. Kathir bin Ziad heard from Al-Walid bin Rabah, and Al-Walid bin Rabah heard from Abu Hurairah, and he is Muqarib (average) in Hadith. Translation Not Available
