Arabic text

3441 - حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَحْيَى الْحِمَّانِيُّ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَلَى مَرِيضٍ يَعُودُهُ، قَالَ: «أَتَشْتَهِي شَيْئًا» قَالَ: أَشْتَهِي كَعْكًا، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» فَطَلَبُوا لَهُ
