حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ بْنُ مُسَرْهَدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا ذَکَرَتْ نِسَائَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَأَثْنَتْ عَلَيْهِنَّ وَقَالَتْ لَهُنَّ مَعْرُوفًا وَقَالَتْ دَخَلَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ عَلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَکَرَ مَعْنَاهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّکَةً قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ کَانَ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ يَقُولُ فِرْصَةً وَکَانَ أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ يَقُولُ قَرْصَةً
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 315
Aishah made a mention of the women of the Ansar and admired them stating that they had obliged (all Muslims). She then said: One of their women came upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She then reported the rest of the tradition to the same effect; but this version she said the words: "a musk-scented piece of cloth. " Musaddad said: Abu 'Awanah used the word firsah (i. e. a piece of cloth), but Abu Al-Ahwas used the word qasrah (i. e. a small piece of cloth).
