5352. It was narrated from Abū Talhah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “The angels do not enter any house in which there is an image.” Busr said: “Then Zaid fell sick and we went to visit him, and on his door there was a curtain on which there was an image. I said to ‘Ubaidullāh Al-Khawlānī: ‘Didn’t Zaid tell us about images yesterday?’ ‘Ubaidullāh said: ‘Didn’t you hear him say: Except for patterns on fabrics?’” (Sahih)
5350 - أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي بُكَيْرٌ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تَدْخُلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ صُورَةٌ» قَالَ بُسْرٌ: ثُمَّ اشْتَكَى زَيْدٌ، فَعُدْنَاهُ، فَإِذَا عَلَى بَابِهِ سِتْرٌ فِيهِ صُورَةٌ، قُلْتُ لِعُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ: أَلَمْ يُخْبِرْنَا زَيْدٌ عَنِ الصُّورَةِ يَوْمَ الْأَوَّلِ؟ قَالَ: قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ: أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ يَقُولُ: «إِلَّا رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ»
