حَدِيثُ أَبِي زَيْدٍ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَخْطَبَ
Hadith of Abu Zayd Amr bin Akhtab
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6846 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Come close
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الضَّحَّاكِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا عَزْرَةُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِلْبَاءُ بْنُ أَحْمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زَيْدٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : ادْنُ مِنِّي فَامْسَحْ ظَهْرِي ، قَالَ : فَكَشَفْتُ عَنْ ظَهْرِهِ ، فَمَسَحْتُ ظَهْرَهُ ، قَالَ : وَجَعَلْتُ الْخَاتَمَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِي فَغَمَزْتُهَا ، قَالَ : قِيلَ : وَمَا الْخَاتَمُ ؟ قَالَ : شَعَرٌ مُجْتَمِعٌ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Come close to me and pass your hand over my back." He said: So I removed the cloth from his blessed back and passed my hand over his back, and I took the Seal of Prophethood between my fingers and pressed it. Ilba' bin Ahmar (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that he was asked: "What was the Seal of Prophethood?" He replied: "It was a cluster of hair on his blessed shoulder (peace and blessings be upon him)."
