Ibn Hajar, the Hafiz, mentioned in "Al-Isabah" the story of Atikah bint Zayd and her condition to Umar, and then to Az-Zubayr, that they should not prevent her from praying in the Prophet's Mosque. He also mentioned how Az-Zubayr tricked her by hitting her so she would stop going out. This story was narrated in "At-Tamheed" by Ibn Abd al-Barr with his chain of transmission back to Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad. However, the scholars have not judged it to be authentic or weak, and no practical ruling is derived from it.
