حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي وَحَدَّثَتْنِي أَيْضًا فَاطِمَةُ عَنْ أَسْمَائَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ صَنَعْتُ سُفْرَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِي بَکْرٍ حِينَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُهَاجِرَ إِلَی الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَتْ فَلَمْ نَجِدْ لِسُفْرَتِهِ وَلَا لِسِقَائِهِ مَا نَرْبِطُهُمَا بِهِ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي بَکْرٍ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَجِدُ شَيْئًا أَرْبِطُ بِهِ إِلَّا نِطَاقِي قَالَ فَشُقِّيهِ بِاثْنَيْنِ فَارْبِطِيهِ بِوَاحِدٍ السِّقَائَ وَبِالْآخَرِ السُّفْرَةَ فَفَعَلْتُ فَلِذَلِکَ سُمِّيَتْ ذَاتَ النِّطَاقَيْنِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2979
Narrated Asma: I prepared the journey-food for Allah's Apostle in Abu Bakr's house when he intended to emigrate to Medina. I could not find anything to tie the food-container and the water skin with. So, I said to Abu Bakr, "By Allah, I do not find anything to tie (these things) with except my waist belt." He said, "Cut it into two pieces and tie the water-skin with one piece and the food-container with the other (the subnarrator added, "She did accordingly and that was the reason for calling her Dhatun-Nitaqain (i.e. twobelted woman)).
