Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُرَجَّى بْنُ رَجَاءٍ الْيَشْكُرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَلْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَوَادَةَ بْنَ الرَّبِيعِ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَأَمَرَ لِي بِذَوْدٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي إِذَا رَجَعْتَ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ فَمُرْهُمْ فَلْيُحْسِنُوا غِذَاءَ رِبَاعِهِمْ وَمُرْهُمْ فَلْيُقَلِّمُوا أَظْفَارَهُمْ وَلَا يَعْبِطُوا بِهَا ضُرُوعَ مَوَاشِيهِمْ إِذَا حَلَبُوا.
English Translation
Abu al-Nadr narrated to us: al-Muraja b. Raja' al-Yashkuri narrated to us: Salm b. Abd al-Rahman narrated to me: I heard Sawadah b. al-Rabi' say: I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and asked him, so he ordered that I be given some camels. Then he said to me, "When you return to your household, order them to feed their young livestock well, and order them to trim their nails and not tear the udders of their livestock with them when they milk."
