حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَی حَدَّثَنَا عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَنُّ وَعِنْدَهُ رَجُلَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَکْبَرُ مِنْ الْآخَرِ فَأَوْحَی اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ فِي فَضْلِ السِّوَاکِ أَنْ کَبِّرْ أَعْطِ السِّوَاکَ أَکْبَرَهُمَا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 50
Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was using the tooth-stick, when two men, one older than the other, were with him. A revelation came to him about the merit of using the tooth-stick. He was asked to show proper respect and give it to the elder of the two.
