Narrator:Ali
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ
كُنْتُ أَدْلُو الدَّلْوَ بِتَمْرَةٍ وَأَشْتَرِطُ أَنَّهَا جَلْدَةٌ .
It was narrated that 'Ali said:
“I used to draw water, one bucket for a date, and I stipulated that they should be good quality, dried dates.”
Reported by Ibn Majah (No. 2447).
