He said: Whom do you think to be more deserving for it ? The people kept silence. He said: Bring Umm Khalid. The she was carried to him and he put it on her, saying: Wear it out and make it ragged twice. Then he went on looking at red or yellow marks on it, and said: This is sanah, sanah, Umm Khalid.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ الْأَذَنِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أُمِّ خَالِدٍ بِنْتِ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِكِسْوَةٍ فِيهَا خَمِيصَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ ، فَقَالَ : "
مَنْ تَرَوْنَ أَحَقُّ بِهَذِهِ ؟ فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ ، فَقَالَ : ائْتُونِي بِأُمِّ خَالِدٍ فَأُتِيَ بِهَا ، فَأَلْبَسَهَا إِيَّاهَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : أَبْلِي وَأَخْلِقِي مَرَّتَيْنِ وَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى عَلَمٍ فِي الْخَمِيصَةِ أَحْمَرَ أَوْ أَصْفَرَ وَيَقُولُ : سَنَاهْ سَنَاهْ يَا أُمَّ خَالِدٍ وَسَنَاهْ فِي كَلَامِ الْحَبَشَةِ الْحَسَنُ
