Arabic text

65 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ أَبُو الحَسَنِ المَرْوَزِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كِتَابًا - أَوْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ - فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّهُمْ لاَ يَقْرَءُونَ كِتَابًا إِلَّا مَخْتُومًا، فَاتَّخَذَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ، نَقْشُهُ: مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِهِ فِي يَدِهِ، فَقُلْتُ لِقَتَادَةَ مَنْ قَالَ: نَقْشُهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ أَنَسٌ
