حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ وَهَاشِمٌ الْمَعْنَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ خَدَمْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَيْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ فَرَغْتُ مِنْ خِدْمَتِهِ قُلْتُ يَقِيلُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَرَجْتُ إِلَى صِبْيَانٍ يَلْعَبُونَ قَالَ فَجِئْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الصِّبْيَانِ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُونَ فَدَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى حَاجَةٍ لَهُ فَذَهَبْتُ فِيهَا وَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي فَيْءٍ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُهُ وَاحْتَبَسْتُ عَنْ أُمِّي عَنْ الْإِتْيَانِ الَّذِي كُنْتُ آتِيهَا فِيهِ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُهَا قَالَتْ مَا حَبَسَكَ قُلْتُ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَاجَةٍ لَهُ قَالَتْ وَمَا هِيَ قُلْتُ هُوَ سِرٌّ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ فَاحْفَظْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِرَّهُ قَالَ ثَابِتٌ قَالَ لِي أَنَسٌ لَوْ حَدَّثْتُ بِهِ أَحَدًا مِنْ النَّاسِ أَوْ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُحَدِّثًا بِهِ لَحَدَّثْتُكَ بِهِ يَا ثَابِتُ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Hajjaj and Hashim told us — the wording being close — they said: Sulayman told us, from Thabit, from Anas, who said, "I served the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, one day, and when I saw that I had finished serving him, I said to myself, 'The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, will take his midday nap,' so I went out to some boys who were playing." He said: I went to watch them play. He said: Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came and greeted the boys as they played, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, called me and sent me on an errand for him, so I went to do it. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sat in some shade until I came to him. I was delayed in returning to my mother from the errand I usually went to her for. When I came to her, she said, "What kept you?" I said, "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent me on an errand for him." She said, "What was it?" I said, "It is a secret of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him." She said, "Then keep the Messenger of Allah's secret." Thabit said: Anas said to me, "If I were to tell anyone at all, or if I were one to tell such things, I would have told you, O Thabit."
