O Umm al-Darda'! Somebody has said something (bad) about you

Umm al-Darda' (ra):

Once someone came to her and said, "O Umm al-Darda'! Somebody has said something (bad) about you to 'Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan!" 

So she replied, 'إن نؤبن بما ليس فينا فطالما زكينا بما ليس فينا' - "If we have been accused of what is not within us, then how many times have we been praised for what is also not within us."
