5305. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! A black child has been born for me." The Prophet ﷺ asked him, "Have you got camels?" The man said, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ asked him, "What colour are they?" The man replied, "Red." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Is there a grey one among them?" The man replied, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whence comes that?" He said, "May be it is because of heredity." The Prophet ﷺ said, "May be your (latest) son has this colour because of heredity."

5305 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وُلِدَ لِي غُلاَمٌ أَسْوَدُ، فَقَالَ: «هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «مَا أَلْوَانُهَا؟» قَالَ: حُمْرٌ، قَالَ: «هَلْ فِيهَا مِنْ أَوْرَقَ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَأَنَّى ذَلِكَ؟» قَالَ: لَعَلَّهُ نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ، قَالَ: «فَلَعَلَّ ابْنَكَ هَذَا نَزَعَهُ»
