حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى السِّيْنَانِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا طَلْحَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ أَسْرَعُكُنَّ لَحَاقًا بِي أَطْوَلُكُنَّ يَدًا ‏"‏ . قَالَتْ فَكُنَّ يَتَطَاوَلْنَ أَيَّتُهُنَّ أَطْوَلُ يَدًا . قَالَتْ فَكَانَتْ أَطْوَلَنَا يَدًا زَيْنَبُ لأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَعْمَلُ بِيَدِهَا وَتَصَدَّقُ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
মাহমুদ ইবনু গাইলান আবূ আহমাদ (রহঃ) ..... উম্মুল মু'মিনীন আয়িশাহ্ (রাযিঃ) হতে রিওয়ায়াত করেন। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমাদের মাঝে সর্বপ্রথম সে-ই আমার সঙ্গে দেখা হবে যার হাত অধিক লম্বা। অতএব সব স্ত্রীরা নিজ নিজ হাত মেপে দেখতে লাগলেন কার হাত অধিক লম্বা ‘আয়িশাহ্ (রাযিঃ) বলেন, পরিশেষে আমাদের মাঝে যাইনাবের হাতই সবচেয়ে লম্বা বলে ঠিক হলো। কেননা, তিনি হাত দ্বারা কাজ করতেন এবং দান করতেন। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৬০৯৪, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
