English translation

1911. It was narrated that 'Aîshah and Umm Salamah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ commanded us to prepare Fâtimah (for her wedding) and take her in to 'Ali. We went to the house and sprinkled it with soft earth from the land of Bathâ'. Then we stuffed two pillows with (date - palm) fiber which we picked with our own hands. Then we offered dates and raisins to eat, and sweet water to drink. We went and got some wood and set it up at the side of the room, to hang clothes and water skins on. And we never saw any wedding better than the wedding of Fātimah." (Da'if)

Arabic text

1911 - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَتَا: «أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نُجَهِّزَ فَاطِمَةَ حَتَّى نُدْخِلَهَا عَلَى عَلِيٍّ، فَعَمَدْنَا إِلَى الْبَيْتِ، فَفَرَشْنَاهُ تُرَابًا لَيِّنًا مِنْ أَعْرَاضِ الْبَطْحَاءِ، ثُمَّ حَشَوْنَا مِرْفَقَتَيْنِ لِيفًا، فَنَفَشْنَاهُ بِأَيْدِينَا، ثُمَّ أَطْعَمْنَا تَمْرًا وَزَبِيبًا، وَسَقَيْنَا مَاءً عَذْبًا، وَعَمَدْنَا إِلَى عُودٍ، فَعَرَضْنَاهُ فِي جَانِبِ الْبَيْتِ، لِيُلْقَى عَلَيْهِ الثَّوْبُ، وَيُعَلَّقَ عَلَيْهِ السِّقَاءُ، فَمَا رَأَيْنَا عُرْسًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْ عُرْسِ فَاطِمَةَ»
