English translation

2030. Al-Aslamiyyah narrated: "I said to 'Uthmān: 'What did the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ tell you when he called you?' He replied that he said: 'I forgot to command you to cover up the two horns, for it is not appropriate that there be anything which distracts the worshiper while he is praying.'”” (Hasan)

Arabic text

2030 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ السَّرْحِ، وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ الْحَجَبِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي خَالِي، عَنْ أُمِّي صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ، قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ الَأسْلَمِيَّةَ، تَقُولُ: قُلْتُ لِعُثْمَانَ: مَا قَالَ لَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ دَعَاكَ؟ قَالَ: قَالَ: «إِنِّي نَسِيتُ أَنْ آمُرَكَ أَنْ تُخَمِّرَ الْقَرْنَيْنِ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْبَيْتِ شَيْءٌ يَشْغَلُ الْمُصَلِّيَ». قَالَ ابْنُ السَّرْحِ: خَالِي مُسَافِعُ بْنُ شَيْبَةَ

Commentary

It is said that the “two horns” refer to those of the redemption sheep received by Ibrāhīm for Ismā’īl, and that they had been preserved in the Ka’bah.
