أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " فَضْلُ عَائِشَةَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ كَفَضْلِ الثَّرِيدِ عَلَى سَائِرِ الطَّعَامِ " .
Translation
ʿAli ibn Khashram reported to us; he said: ʿIsa ibn Yunus informed us, from Ibn Abi Dhiʾb, from al-Harith ibn ʿAbd al-Rahman, from Abu Salamah, from ʿAishah, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘The excellence of ʿAishah over other women is like the excellence of tharid over all other food.’
