Sayyiduna Harb bin al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the pulpit on Friday saying: "We have ordered that the women be given wars (a fragrant yellow dye) and needles. As for the wars, it came to them from Yemen, and as for the needles, they were taken from some of the people of the dhimmah (protected non-Muslims) out of the jizyah they owed."
The narrator said: I asked al-Rabi' - or he was asked, or al-Rabi' bin Harb himself heard it - and he said: Yes.
