[3768] 20 - (...) It was narrated from Abū Hurairah that a Bedouin came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allāh, my wife has given birth to a black boy, and I am shocked and am not sure (if he is mine).” The Prophet ﷺ said to him: “Do you have camels?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “What are their colors?” He said: “Red.” He said: “Are there any dusky ones among them?” He said: “Yes.” The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “How is that?” He said: “Perhaps, O Messenger of Allâh, that it is an inherited trait.” The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “Perhaps this is also an inherited trait.”
