Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Babay, who was the servant of Hazrat Umm Salamah, narrates that I saw Hazrat Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) carrying a basket of dung and manure towards his land, which was called Zu’abah. I said to him: O Abu Ishaq! Have you picked this up yourself? He replied: This basket of dung and manure is actually a basket of grain (food).
