Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 6354 — the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الصَّائِغُ ، ثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ، ثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ مُوسَى الطَّلْحِيُّ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ الْمُعْتَمِرِ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ أَبِي الضُّحَى ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ : قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : I " أَهْدَى لَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ رِجْلَ شَاةٍ ، فَقَعَدْتُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ظُلْمَةِ اللَّيْلِ نُقَطِّعُهَا قَالَ مَسْرُوقٌ : فَقُلْتُ : أَلَا أَسْرَجْتُمْ ؟ قَالَتْ : لَوْ كَانَ عِنْدَنَا سِرَاجٌ لَأْتَدَمْنَا بِهِ .
It is narrated from Masruq (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), said: "Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) sent us the leg of a sheep as a gift, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and I sat in the darkness of the night cutting it."
Masruq (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: I said: "Did you not light a lamp?"
She said: "If we had had oil (to light a lamp), we would have used it as a relish."
