حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سَيْحَانُ وَجَيْحَانُ وَالْفُرَاتُ وَالنِّيلُ كُلٌّ مِنْ أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ»

কুতায়বাহ ইবনু সাঈদ (রহঃ) ..... আয়িশাহ্ (রাযিঃ) বলেন, আমি যেন রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর সিঁথিতে তার ইহরামের অবস্থায় কস্তুরীর চাকচিক্য দেখতে পাচ্ছি।

حسن بن عبد اللہ سے روایت ہے کہا ہمیں ابرا ہیم نے اسود سے حدیث بیان کی کہا : حضرت عائشہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا نے فر ما یا : ایسا لگتا ہے کہ میں رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی مانگ میں کستوری کی چمک دیکھ رہی ہوں اور آپ احرا م باند ھے ہو ئے ہیں ۔

Bize Kuteybetü'bnü Said rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Abdulvâhid, Hasen b. Ubeydillah'dan rivayet etti. (Demişki): Bize İbrahim, Esved'den naklen rivayet eyledi. (Demişki): Âişe (Radiyallahû anha): R«ûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) ihramlı iken, onun saç ayrımındaki misk pırıltısını hâlâ görür gibiyim.» dedi

What it means

The Oxus, the Jaxartes, the Euphrates, and the Nile are four rivers in this world, which the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) described as being from the rivers of Paradise. Some scholars said that they are literally from the rivers of Paradise. However, when these rivers were put in this world, they earned the character of worldly rivers and became from the rivers of this world.
