حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ يَعُودُهُ قَالَ فَوَجَدْنَا عِنْدَهُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ قَالَ فَدَعَا أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِنْسَانًا فَنَزَعَ نَمَطًا تَحْتَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ لِمَ تَنْتَزِعُهُ قَالَ لِأَنَّ فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرَ وَقَدْ قَالَ فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ قَالَ سَهْلٌ أَوَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ لِنَفْسِي.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Ishaq b. Isa narrated to us: Malik narrated to us, from Abu al-Nadr, from Ubaydullah b. Abdullah, that he visited Abu Talhah al-Ansari to check on him during his illness. He said: We found Sahl b. Hunayf with him. Abu Talhah called someone and had him remove a decorated cloth from beneath him. Sahl b. Hunayf said to him, "Why do you remove it?" He said, "Because it has images on it, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said about them what you already know." Sahl said, "Did he not say, 'except what is a mere pattern woven into a garment'?" He said, "Yes, but it is more comforting to my mind."
