Hadith 381
اَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، نَا طَلْحَةُ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: اَنَّ اَبَا طَالِبٍ کَانَ یَبْعَثُ صِبْیَانَهٗ، وَیَبْعُثُ مُحَمَّدًا مَعَهُمْ وَهُمْ صِبْیَانٌ صِغَارٌ، فَیَنْقُلُوْنَ لَهٗ الْحِجَارَةُ لِیَصْفه زَمْزَم وَعَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّی اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَمِرَةٌ صَغِیْرَةٌ یَجْعَلُهَا عَلٰی عُنُقِهٖ، وَحَمَلَ حَجَرَیْنِ صَغِیْرَیْنِ.. فَطَرَحَ عَنْهُ الْمَجَرَینِ، وَاُغْمِیَ عَلَیْهِ، فَاَفَاقَ فَشَدَّ عَلَیْهِ نَمِرَتَهٗ، فَقَالَ لَهٗ بَنُوْ عَمِّهٖ: مَا شَأْنُكَ؟ قَالَ: اِنِّی نُهِیْتُ عَنِ التَّعَرّٰی.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Abu Talib used to send his children and would send Muhammad (peace be upon him) with them when he was young. They used to bring stones for him, and Muhammad (peace be upon him) had a small cloak with white and black stripes, which he would place on his neck. He picked up two small stones (both stones fell from him), and he fainted. When he regained consciousness, he tied his cloak. His cousins said to him: "What happened to you?" He replied: "I have been forbidden from being naked."
