حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبَصْرِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَا: نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، قَالَ: نَا أَبِي، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ:

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِأَزْوَاجِهِ: يَتْبَعُنِي أَطْوَلُكُنَّ يَدًا. قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَكُنَّا إِذَا اجْتَمَعْنَا فِي بَيْتِ إِحْدَانَا بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَمُدُّ أَيْدِيَنَا فِي الْجِدَارِ نَتَطَاوَلُ، فَلَمْ نَزَلْ نَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَتْ زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ جَحْشِ بْنِ رِئَابٍ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَةً قَصِيرَةً وَلَمْ تَكُنْ أَطْوَلَنَا، فَعَرَفْنَا حِينَئِذٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا أَرَادَ بِطُولِ الْيَدِ الصَّدَقَةَ. قَالَتْ: فَكَانَتْ زَيْنَبُ امْرَأَةً صَنَاعَ الْيَدِ، فَكَانَتْ تَفْعَلُ وَتَخْرُزُ - يَعْنِي: أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَعْمَلُ - وَتَصَدَّقُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ said to his wives: “The one with the longest hand among you will follow me (i.e., die first).” ʿĀʾishah said: After the death of the Prophet ﷺ, whenever we gathered in the house of one of us, we would stretch our hands against the wall, measuring ourselves. We continued doing that until Zaynab bt. Jaḥsh b. Riʾāb, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, passed away. She was a short woman and was not the tallest of us, so we knew then that by the length of the hand the Prophet ﷺ meant charity. She said: Zaynab was a woman with skillful hands; she used to work, sew – meaning she would work – and give charity in the path of Allah.
