مِنْ مُسْنَدِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ
From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1293 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Indeed
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُسْتَمِرُّ بْنُ الرَّيَّانِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: «إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ، فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَاتَّقُوا النِّسَاءَ» قَالَ: ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ ثَلَاثَ نِسْوَةٍ كُنَّ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: وَاحِدَةً قَصِيرَةً، وَثِنْتَيْنِ طَوِيلَتَيْنِ، فَجَعَلَتْ رِجْلًا مِنْ خَشَبٍ حَتَّى لَحِقَتْ بِهِمَا، وَاتَّخَذَتْ خَاتَمًا وَجَعَلَتْ لَهُ غَلَقًا، وَحَشَتْهُ بِأَطْيَبِ الطِّيبِ - الْمِسْكِ - فَكَانَتْ إِذَا مَرَّتْ عَلَى مَجْلِسٍ فَتَحَتِ الْغَلَقَ فَفَاحَ رِيحُ الْمِسْكِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, the world is green, fresh and sweet, so fear Allah and beware of (the trial of) women." The narrator states that he (peace and blessings be upon him) then mentioned three women of the Children of Israel, one of whom was short and two tall. That (short woman) had an artificial foot made of wood so that she became level with the two of them. She also had a ring made which had a lid, and she filled it with the finest perfume, namely musk. Whenever she passed by a gathering, she would open its lid, and the fragrance of musk would spread.
