The High Standing of the Female Companions and Their Patience with Working to Help Their Husbands
Shaikh ʿArafāt ibn Ḥasan Al-Muḥammadī, may Allāh protect him, said:
Asmāʾ bint Abī Bakr, may Allāh be pleased with her, said: “I used to carry date stones from Al-Zubair’s [her husband’s] land upon my head. It was [a distance] of two-thirds of a farsakh from me.” (Agreed upon)
She used to traverse a distance of 3.7 km while carrying [a load] on her head and on her back.
I say: And she used to stitch [water carrying] sacks [made of leather], draw water, and knead [dough], and all of that with her [own] hands.

[مكانة الصحابيات وصبرهن على خدمة الأزواج]
قالت أسماء بنت أبي بكر رضي الله عنها:
كنت أنقل النوى من أرض الزبير على رأسي. وهي مني على ثلثي فرسخ.
(متفق عليه)كانت تقطع مسافة ٣٫٧٠٠ كيلو، وهي تحمل على رأسها وظهرها.
قلت:
وكانت تخيط الدلو، وتستقي الماء، وتعجن وكل ذلك بيدها.— عرفات بن حسن المحمدي (@Arafatbinhassan) April 2, 2023
