Hadith 11974
اُردوEn
عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ صَنَعْتُ سُفْرَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ حِينَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُهَاجِرَ قَالَتْ فَلَمْ نَجِدْ لِسُفْرَتِهِ وَلَا لِسِقَائِهِ مَا نَرْبِطُهُمَا بِهِ قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَجِدُ شَيْئًا أَرْبِطُهُ بِهِ إِلَّا نِطَاقِي قَالَ فَقَالَ شُقِّيهِ بِاثْنَيْنِ فَارْبِطِي بِوَاحِدٍ السِّقَاءَ وَبِالْآخَرِ السُّفْرَةَ فَلِذَلِكَ سُمِّيَتْ ذَاتَ النِّطَاقَيْنِ
It is narrated from Sayyida Asma’ (may Allah be pleased with her) that on the occasion of migration, I prepared provisions for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at the house of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). We could not find anything to tie the bag and the water-skin. I said to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him): By Allah! There is nothing available to tie this luggage except my waistband. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Tear it into two parts and tie the food with one and the water with the other. For this reason, Sayyida Asma’ (may Allah be pleased with her) was given the name “Dhat an-Nitaqayn” (the possessor of two waistbands).
Brief Explanation
Benefits: ... Nitaq: A belt that is tied around the waist for the purpose of hard work and exertion. When Sayyidah Asma' radi Allahu anha divided her belt into two parts, it was as if two belts were made. Therefore, she was called "Dhat al-Nitaqayn," meaning "the one with two belts."
