وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
" إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْغُلُوَّ ! فَإِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ غَلَا كَثِيرٌ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ الْقَصِيرَةُ تَتَّخِذُ خُفَّيْنِ مِنْ خَشَبٍ فَتَحْشُوهُمَا، ثُمَّ تُولِجُ فِيهِمَا رِجْلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ تَقُومُ إِلَى جَنْبِ الْمَرْأَةِ الطَّوِيلَةِ فَتَمْشِي مَعَهَا، فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ سَاوَتْ بِهَا أَوْ كَانَتْ أَطْوَلَ مِنْهَا

- Rasūl Allāh ﷺ
✧ “Beware of exaggeration! For many of the Children of Israel went to extremes, until a short woman would take two wooden clogs and stuff them, then insert her feet into them, then stand beside a tall woman and walk with her, and there she was equal to her or taller than her.”
