Majma al-Zawaid 8888 — Reports on statues and images
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ : عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بَعَثَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنْ يُسَوِّيَ كُلَّ قَبْرٍ ، وَأَنْ يُلَطِّخَ كُلَّ صَنَمٍ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَدْخُلَ بُيُوتَ قَوْمِي ، قَالَ : فَأَرْسَلَنِي . فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ .
رَوَى الْأَوَّلَ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرَوَى الثَّانِيَ ابْنُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ .
رَوَى الْأَوَّلَ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرَوَى الثَّانِيَ ابْنُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ .
In one narration the wording is: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a man of the Ansar to level every grave and to deface every idol. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I dislike entering the houses of my people." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me. After this, the narrator mentioned a hadith similar to the previous one. Imam Ahmad recorded the first narration, and his son Abdullah recorded the second.
