حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ قَطُّ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ مِمَّا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ ذِكْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ لَهَا وَلَقَدْ أَمَرَهُ رَبُّهُ أَنْ يُبَشِّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ قَصَبٍ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي مِنْ ذَهَبٍ قَالَهُ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ ‏.‏

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Harun ibn Ishaq narrated to us: ʿAbdah ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from Hisham ibn ʿUrwah, from his father, from ʿAishah, who said: ‘I was never jealous of any woman as I was of Khadijah, because of what I heard of the Messenger of Allah remembering her. His Lord had indeed commanded him to give her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of qasab’—meaning gold; this is Ibn Majah’s explanation.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed

  • Ibn Majah glosses qasab here as gold.
