[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , described women as being like the rib of a Arabian sheep, neither too small nor too big. It should be melted and then divided into three parts, and one part should be drunk every day on an empty stomach.  

أحمد:٢٠٧٤٢ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَعَتَ مِنْ عِرْقِ النَّسَا أَنْ تُؤْخَذَ أَلْيَةُ كَبْشٍ عَرَبِيٍّ لَيْسَتْ بِصَغِيرَةٍ وَلَا عَظِيمَةٍ فَتُذَابَ ثُمَّ تُجَزَّأَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَيُشْرَبَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ عَلَى رِيقِ النَّفَسِ جُزْءً

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَصِفُ مِنْ عِرْقِ النَّسَا أَلْيَةَ كَبْشٍ عَرَبِيٍّ أَسْوَدَ لَيْسَ بِالْعَظِيمِ وَلَا بِالصَّغِيرِ يُجَزَّأُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَيُذَابُ فَيُشْرَبُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ جُزْءٌ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ described the root of people's lineage as being attached to an Arabian male sheep, without any significant or minor distinguishing characteristic.
