Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُفَضَّلِ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، ‏{‏ عَنْ مُرَّةَ، ‏}‏ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ فَضْلُ عَائِشَةَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ كَفَضْلِ الثَّرِيدِ عَلَى سَائِرِ الطَّعَامِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Ismaʿil ibn Masʿud reported to us; he said: Bishr—meaning Ibn al-Mufaddal—narrated to us; he said: Shuʿbah narrated to us, from ʿAmr ibn Murrah [from Murrah], from Abu Musa, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: ‘The excellence of ʿAishah over other women is like the excellence of tharid over all other food.’

Translation notes
  • Tharid is a dish of bread served with broth and meat.
