5171. Narrated Thābit : The marriage of Zainab bint Jahsh was mentioned in the presence of Anas and he said, "I did not see the Prophet ﷺ giving a better Walima (wedding banquet) on marrying any of his wives than the one he gave on marrying Zainab. He gave that Walima (wedding banquet) with one sheep."

Arabic text

5171 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: ذُكِرَ تَزْوِيجُ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ عِنْدَ أَنَسٍ، فَقَالَ: «مَا رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْلَمَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ مَا أَوْلَمَ عَلَيْهَا، أَوْلَمَ بِشَاةٍ»
