١٩٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْوَضَّاحِ الْكُوفِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ ‌شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ قَالَ: «إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيُخَالِطُنَا حَتَّى إِنْ كَانَ لَيَقُولُ لِأَخٍ لِي صَغِيرٍ: يَا أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ» مَا فَعَلَ النُّغَيْرُ. ١٩٨٩ (م) - حَدَّثَنَا ‌هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ ‌شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ نَحْوَهُ. وَأَبُو التَّيَّاحِ اسْمُهُ: يَزِيدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الضُّبَيْعِيُّ، هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

    [1] A Nughair is a type of small bird similar to a sparrow. This Hadīth appeared previously, see no 333.

Commentary

Abū 'Umayr the brother of Anas ﷺ was a young child who had a tamed sparrow and he used to play with it. It eventually died, and the Prophet ﷺ tried to humor him by asking: "O Abū 'Umayr! What has happened to your Nughair? The idea was just to humor the child and demonstrate his love for the little one.
