Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 3872 — The virtue of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq
اُردوEn
قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ ، ثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَوْنٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - فِي غَزْوَةِ ذَاتِ السَّلَاسِلِ ، وَلِحْيَتُهُ كَأَنَّهَا لَهَبُ الْعَرْفَجِ .
It is narrated from a man of Banu Asad that he said: "I saw Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) during the expedition of Dhat al-Salasil, and (because of the colour and gleam of the henna dye) his blessed beard looked as though it were the blazing flame of arfaj (a desert shrub)."
Imam Ahmad bin Mani' recorded this narration in his Musnad. Because one narrator in its chain is unnamed (mubham), it is weak in its chain; however, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq's (may Allah be pleased with him) use of henna and katam dye is established by other reliable and authentic hadith.
