3720. It was narrated that Abu Taiyâh said: "I heard Anas bin Mâlik say: 'The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to mix with us so much that he said to a little brother of mine: "O Abu 'Umayr, what happened to the Nughair?"' (Sahih) (One of the narrators) Waki' said: "Meaning, a bird that he used to play with."

Arabic text

3720 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يُخَالِطُنَا حَتَّى يَقُولَ لِأَخٍ لِي صَغِيرٍ: يَا أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ مَا فَعَلَ النُّغَيْرُ؟ " قَالَ: وَكِيعٌ: يَعْنِي طَيْرًا كَانَ يَلْعَبُ بِهِ
