Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ مُضَرَ عَنْ ابْنِ الْهَادِ أَنَّ زِيَادَ بْنَ أَبِي زِيَادٍ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَيَّاشٍ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عِرَاكِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يُحَدِّثُ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ جَاءَتْنِي مِسْكِينَةٌ تَحْمِلُ ابْنَتَيْنِ لَهَا فَأَطْعَمْتُهَا ثَلَاثَ تَمَرَاتٍ فَأَعْطَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُمَا تَمْرَةً وَرَفَعَتْ إِلَى فِيهَا تَمْرَةً لِتَأْكُلَهَا فَاسْتَطْعَمَتْهَا ابْنَتَاهَا فَشَقَّتْ التَّمْرَةَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَأْكُلَهَا بَيْنَهُمَا قَالَتْ فَأَعْجَبَنِي شَأْنُهَا فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ الَّذِي صَنَعَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَوْجَبَ لَهَا بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعْتَقَهَا بِهَا مِنْ النَّارِ.
English Translation
Qutaybah bin Sa'id told us, saying Bakr bin Mudar told us, from Ibn al-Had, that Ziyad bin Abi Ziyad, the freedman of Ibn Ayyash, told him, from Irak bin Malik, who said: I heard him narrating to Umar bin Abd al-Aziz, from Aisha, that she said: A poor woman came to me carrying two daughters of hers, so I fed her three dates. She gave each of her two daughters one date, and raised a date to her own mouth to eat it, but her two daughters asked her for food, so she split the date she had intended to eat between the two of them. She said: Her conduct amazed me, so I mentioned what she had done to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said: Indeed Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has made Paradise obligatory for her because of it, and has freed her by it from the Fire.
