حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْمَاعِيلُ , قَال : َأَخْبَرَنَا
أَيُّوبُ , عَنْ
نَافِعٍ , أَنَّ امْرَأَةً دَخَلَتْ عَلَى
عَائِشَةَ , فَإِذَا رُمْحٌ مَنْصُوبٌ , فَقَالَت : ْمَا هَذَا الرُّمْحُ ؟ فَقَالَت : ْنَقْتُلُ بِهِ الْأَوْزَاغَ , ثُمَّ حَدَّثَتْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
" أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لَمَّا أُلْقِيَ فِي النَّارِ جَعَلَتْ الدَّوَابُّ كُلُّهَا تُطْفِئُ عَنْهُ إِلَّا الْوَزَغَ فَإِنَّهُ جَعَلَ يَنْفُخُهَا عَلَيْهِ " .
A woman says that once I went to the service of Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and saw a spear placed in her house. I asked her, "O Mother of the Believers! What do you do with this spear?" She replied, "It is kept for these lizards and I kill them with it, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) narrated this hadith to us: When Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) was thrown into the fire, there was no animal on the earth that did not try to extinguish the fire except the lizard, which was blowing on it (to ignite it further)."
