Book 48: The Book of Adornment
It was narrated from ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Abdullah that:
He entered upon Abu Talhah Al-Ansari to visit him (when he was sick), and he found Sahl bin Hunaif there. Abu Talhah told someone to remove a blanket from beneath him, and Sahl said to him: “Why do you want to remove it?” He said: “Because there are images on it, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) [SAW] said what you know concerning them.” He said: “Did he not say: Except for patterns on fabrics?” He said: “Yes, but this makes me feel more comfortable.”
أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ يَعُودُهُ فَوَجَدَ عِنْدَهُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ فَأَمَرَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِنْسَانًا يَنْزِعُ نَمَطًا تَحْتَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَهْلٌ لِمَ تَنْزِعُ قَالَ لأَنَّ فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرُ وَقَدْ قَالَ فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ . قَالَ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ ” إِلاَّ مَا كَانَ رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ ” . قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ لِنَفْسِي .
