حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الرَّازِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُخْتَارِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ عَنِ الرُّبَيِّعِ بِنْتِ مُعَوِّذِ بْنِ عَفْرَائَ قَالَتْ بَعَثَنِي مُعَاذُ بْنُ عَفْرَائَ بِقِنَاعٍ مِنْ رُطَبٍ وَعَلَيْهِ أَجْرٌ مِنْ قِثَّائِ زُغْبٍ وَکَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلی الله عليه وسلم يُحِبُّ الْقِثَّائَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ وَعِنْدَهُ حِلْيَةٌ قَدْ قَدِمَتْ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَمَلأَ يَدَهُ مِنْهَا فَأَعْطَانِيهِ
شمائل المحمدية / شمائل ترمزی · Hadith 192
Rubayyi bint Mu’awwidh ibn Afraa radiyallahu anha says, “My uncle Mu’aadh ibn Afraa sent me with a plate of fresh dates, which had small cucumbers on it, to Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam. Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam relished cucumbers. I took this to him. At that time some jewelery had been sent to Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam from Bahrain. He took a handful from it and gave it to me.”
