Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 1054
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي خَارِجَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ مَكِيثٍ الْجُهَنِيُّ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ سَرْجٍ مَوْلَى أُمِّ صَبِيَّةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ وَهِيَ خَوْلَةُ، وَهِيَ جَدَّةُ خَارِجَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهَا تَقُولُ: اخْتَلَفَتْ يَدِي وَيَدُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ.

Kharija ibn al-Harith ibn Rafi ibn Makith al-Juhani reported from Salim ibn Sarj, the client of Umm Sabiyya bint Qays—who was Khawla and Kharija’s grandmother—that he heard her say: “My hand and the hand of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met in one vessel.”
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The report names Umm Sabiyya bint Qays, also known as Khawla.
أُمِّ صَبِيَّةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ
The Arabic names Umm Sabiyya, not Umm Habiba.
Should the witness’s name be corrected?
اخْتَلَفَتْ يَدِي وَيَدُ رَسُولِ اللهِ
The Arabic indicates that the two hands met/overlapped in one vessel, not that they mixed together.
Should this be translated as the hands meeting in one vessel?
