بَابُ مَا يَعْمَلُ الرَّجُلُ فِي بَيْتِهِChapter: What a Man Does in His House
Hadith 541
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، قِيلَ لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: مَاذَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْمَلُ فِي بَيْتِهِ؟ قَالَتْ: كَانَ بَشَرًا مِنَ الْبَشَرِ، يَفْلِي ثَوْبَهُ، وَيَحْلِبُ شَاتَهُ.
It is narrated from Umrah (may Allah have mercy on her) that Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was asked: What did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) do in his house? She replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was also a human being among humans. He would remove lice and the like from his clothes, and he would milk his own goat.
