Hadith 7029
اُردوEn
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْلَمَ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ مَا أَوْلَمَ عَلَى زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ قَالَ فَأَوْلَمَ بِشَاةٍ أَوْ ذَبَحَ شَاةً
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I have not seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) hold such a great wedding feast (walima) on the occasion of any of his marriages as he did on the occasion of his marriage to Sayyida Zaynab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her). On that occasion, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered a goat.
