حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ
يَا ابْنَ أُخْتِي، كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَوْقَ الْوَفْرَةِ وَدُونَ الْجُمَّةِ، وَايْمُ اللهِ يَا ابْنَ أُخْتِي، إِنْ كَانَ لَيَمُرُّ عَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ الشَّهْرُ مَا يُوقَدُ فِي بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ نَارٍ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ اللُّحَيْمُ، وَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا الْأَسْوَدَانِ: الْمَاءُ وَالتَّمْرُ، إِلَّا أَنَّ حَوْلَنَا أَهْلَ دُورٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ - جَزَاهُمُ اللهُ خَيْرًا فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَالْقَدِيمِ - فَكُلُّ يَوْمٍ يَبْعَثُونَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِغَزِيرَةِ شَاتِهِمْ - يَعْنِي: فَيَنَالُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ ذَلِكَ اللَّبَنِ - وَلَقَدْ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا فِي رَفِّي مِنْ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ ذُو كَبِدٍ إِلَّا قَرِيبٌ مِنْ شَطْرِ شَعِيرٍ، فَأَكَلْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى طَالَ عَلَيَّ لَا يَفْنَى، فَكِلْتُهُ فَفَنِيَ، فَلَيْتَنِي لَمْ أَكُنْ كِلْتُهُ، وَايْمُ اللهِ لَئِنْ كَانَ ضِجَاعُهُ مِنْ أَدَمٍ حَشْوُهُ لِيفٌ

✧ O son of my sister, the hair of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was above the wafrah (hair reaching the earlobes) and below the jummah (hair reaching the shoulders). And by Allah, O son of my sister, a month would pass upon the family of Muhammad ﷺ without a fire being lit in the house of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, except for a little meat. It was only the two black things: water and dates. However, around us were households of the Ansar—may Allah reward them well in the present and the past—and every day they would send to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ the milk of their sheep, meaning the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would get some of that milk. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, and there was no food on my shelf that a living being could eat except a little over half a measure of barley. I ate from it until it lasted so long that I thought it would never run out. Then I measured it, and it ran out. I wish I had never measured it. And by Allah, his mattress was of tanned leather stuffed with palm fiber.
