Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3761 — I visited the Mother of the Believers
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ، وَعِنْدَهَا جَارِيَةٌ لَهَا عَلَيْهَا دِرْعُ قُطْنٍ ، ثَمَنُهُ خَمْسَةُ دَرَاهِمَ ، فَقَالَتِ : I " ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ إِلَى جَارِيَتِي ، انْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا فَإِنَّهَا تَزْهُو عَلَى أَنْ تَلْبَسَهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ ، وَقَدْ كَانَ لِي مِنْهُنَّ دِرْعٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا كَانَتِ امْرَأَةٌ تُقَيَّنُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ إِلَّا أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيَّ تَسْتَعِيرُهُ I " .
Ayman (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: I visited the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), and with her was a slave girl of hers wearing a cotton shift worth five dirhams. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Raise your head and look at this slave girl of mine; she considers it beneath her to wear it (the shift) even at home, while in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) I had a shift like this, and there was no woman in Madinah being adorned as a bride but she would send to me asking to borrow it."
