Sahih (Al-Albani)
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حُرَيْثُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ قَالَ‏:‏ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ‏:‏ كُنْتُ أَدْخُلُ بُيُوتَ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي خِلاَفَةِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَأَتَنَاوَلُ سُقُفَهَا بِيَدِي‏.‏
Al-Hasan said, "I used to go into the houses of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) during the khalifate of 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, and I could touch their ceilings with my own hand."
