6847. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: A bedouin came to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and said, "My wife has delivered a black child."(2) The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Have you got camels?" He replied, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What colour are they?" He replied, "They are red." The Prophet ﷺ further asked, "Are any of them grey in colour?" He replied, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ asked him, "When did that greyness come?" He said, "I think it descended from the camel's ancestors." Then the Prophet ﷺ said (to him), "Therefore, this child of yours has most probably inherited the colour from his ancestors."

6847 - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي وَلَدَتْ غُلاَمًا أَسْوَدَ، فَقَالَ: «هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «مَا أَلْوَانُهَا» قَالَ: حُمْرٌ، قَالَ: «هَلْ فِيهَا مِنْ أَوْرَقَ» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَأَنَّى كَانَ ذَلِكَ» قَالَ: أُرَاهُ عِرْقٌ نَزَعَهُ، قَالَ: «فَلَعَلَّ ابْنَكَ هَذَا نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ» بَابٌ: كَمُ التَّعْزِيرُ وَالأَدَبُ
