4932. It was narrated from Abū Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān that 'Āishah said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ returned from the campaign to Tabūk, or Khaibar, and there was a curtain over her niche. The wind lifted the edge of the curtain, and uncovered 'Āishah's dolls that she played with. He said: "What is this, O 'Āishah?" She said: "My dolls." He saw among them a horse with two wings made of cloth, and he said: "What is this that I see in the midst of them?" She said: "A horse." He said: "What is this that I see on it?" I said: "Two wings." He said: "A horse with wings?" She said: "Have you not heard that Sulaimān had horses with wings?" She said: "And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ smiled so broadly that I saw his molar teeth." (Ḥasan)
