English translation

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)

4932 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَوْفٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عُمَارَةُ بْنُ غَزِيَّةَ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ، أَوْ خَيْبَرَ وَفِي سَهْوَتِهَا سِتْرٌ، فَهَبَّتْ رِيحٌ فَكَشَفَتْ نَاحِيَةَ السِّتْرِ عَنْ بَنَاتٍ لِعَائِشَةَ لُعَبٍ، فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا يَا عَائِشَةُ؟» قَالَتْ: بَنَاتِي، وَرَأَى بَيْنَهُنَّ فَرَسًا لَهُ جَنَاحَانِ مِنْ رِقَاعٍ، فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا الَّذِي أَرَى وَسْطَهُنَّ؟» قَالَتْ: فَرَسٌ، قَالَ: «وَمَا هَذَا الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ؟» قَالَتْ: جَنَاحَانِ، قَالَ: «فَرَسٌ لَهُ جَنَاحَانِ؟» قَالَتْ: أَمَا سَمِعْتَ أَنَّ لِسُلَيْمَانَ خَيْلًا لَهَا أَجْنِحَةٌ؟ قَالَتْ: فَضَحِكَ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ نَوَاجِذَهُ
