  And indeed we have narrated from Ibn Aisha hadiths that are witty, and some of them contain obscenity.

  رُوِيَّنَا — we have narrated. This verb is in the passive reporting style with -na fused on as 'us/we', meaning the narration was received rather than freshly performed. Arabic builds the passive by reshaping the verb's inner vowels, not by adding a helper word, which is why it looks close to its active twin.
