Arabic text

660 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ «وَكَانَ قَدْ عَقَلَ مَجَّةً مَجَّهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي دَلْوٍ مِنْ بِئْرٍ لَهُمْ»

Commentary

Whatever the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ touched with hand or body became blessed. Hence it is that the Companions preserved his hair and other personal belongings. However, the Companions and their Successors never ever kept anything associated with other Companions or Successors as a holy relic. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, on this occasion took some water in his mouth and blew it over the face of Mahmud for fun. This shows that it is all right to make merry with small children.
