1750. Abū An-Nadr narrated from 'Ubaidullāh bin 'Abdullāh bin 'Utbah, that he entered upon Abū Ṭalhah Al-Anṣārī to pay him a visit (while he was ill), and he found Sahl bin Ḥunaif with him. He said: "Abū Ṭalhah called for someone to remove a sheet that was under him. Sahl said to him: 'Why did you remove it?' He replied: 'Because it contains images on it, and the Prophet ﷺ said about them what you know[1].' Sahl said: 'Did he not say: 'Except for markings on a garment?' he said: 'Yes, but this is better to me.'"(Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣahīh.

١٧٥٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَعْنٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي النَّضْرِ، عَنْ ‌عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، «أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ» يَعُودُهُ، قَالَ: فَوَجَدْتُ عِنْدَهُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ، قَالَ: فَدَعَا أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِنْسَانًا يَنْزِعُ نَمَطًا تَحْتَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: سَهْلٌ لِمَ تَنْزِعُهُ؟ فَقَالَ: لِأَنَّ فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرَ، وَقَدْ قَالَ فِيهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ. قَالَ ‌سَهْلٌ : أَوَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ؟ فَقَالَ: بَلَى، وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ لِنَفْسِي هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

The word Raqm used in the Hadīth means embroideries etc., woven into the cloth for beautification, which either do not contain the images of animate object or are in the form of separate parts of the body that do not make a complete picture.
