Arabic hadith text
وَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يبْعَث عبد الله ابْن رَوَاحَةَ إِلَى يَهُودٍ فَيَخْرُصُ النَّخْلَ حِينَ يَطِيبُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُؤْكَلَ مِنْهُ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ
Translation
Aisha said: The Prophet ﷺ used to send Abdullah ibn Rawaha to the Jews, and he would estimate the date palms when their fruit had ripened, before any of it was eaten. Abu Dawud transmitted it.
