حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، وَمَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُحِبُّ الْحَلْوَاءَ وَالْعَسَلَ ‏.‏ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ كَلاَمٌ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ هَذَا ‏.‏

Translation

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

Salamah ibn Shabib, Mahmud ibn Ghaylan, and Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Dawraqi said: Abu Usamah narrated to us, from Hisham ibn ‘Urwah, from his father, from ‘A’ishah, who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) liked sweets and honey. This hadith is hasan sahih gharīb (good, authentic, and rare). ‘Ali ibn Mushir also reported it from Hisham ibn ‘Urwah. There is more discussion in the hadith than what is included here.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The closing phrase indicates that the fuller hadith contains more wording than the excerpt in this block.

  • حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ،

    The English witness omits three co-transmitters and the chain through Abu Usamah, Hisham ibn ‘Urwah, and his father.

    Should the full chain be included?
