دَفْعِ السِّوَاكِ إِلَى الأَكْبَرِ

Handing the tooth-stick to the elder

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " أَرَانِي أَتَسَوَّكُ بِسِوَاكٍ، فَجَاءَنِي رَجُلاَنِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الآخَرِ، فَنَاوَلْتُ السِّوَاكَ الأَصْغَرَ مِنْهُمَا، فَقِيلَ لِي كَبِّرْ. فَدَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى الأَكْبَرِ مِنْهُمَا ".

وَقَالَ عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا صَخْرُ بْنُ جُوَيْرِيَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ،

Translation

Ibn Umar reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, “I saw myself (in a dream) cleaning my teeth with a tooth-stick (siwak). Two men came to me, one of them older than the other. I handed the tooth-stick to the younger of them, and it was said to me, ‘Give precedence to the elder!’ So I gave it to the older of them.”

Ibn Umar berichtete, dass der Prophet ﷺ sagte: „Ich sah mich (im Traum), wie ich mir mit einem Zahnputzholz (Siwak) die Zähne reinigte. Da kamen zwei Männer zu mir, von denen einer älter war als der andere. Ich reichte das Zahnputzholz dem Jüngeren von ihnen, da wurde mir gesagt: ‚Gib dem Älteren den Vortritt!‘ So gab ich es dem Älteren von ihnen.“
