أَخْبَرَنَا
عَلِيُّ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
مَعْنٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ
أَبِي النَّضْرِ ، عَنْ
عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ , أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ يَعُودُهُ ، فَوَجَدَ عِنْدَهُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ , فَأَمَرَ
أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِنْسَانًا يَنْزَعُ نَمَطًا تَحْتَهُ , فَقَالَ لَهُ
سَهْلٌ : لِمَ تَنْزِعُ ، قَالَ : لِأَنَّ فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرُ ، وَقَدْ قَالَ فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ , قَالَ : أَلَمْ يَقُلْ : " إِلَّا مَا كَانَ رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ " ؟ , قَالَ : " بَلَى , وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ لِنَفْسِي " .
´It was narrated from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah that:` He entered upon Abu Talhah Al-Ansari to visit him (when he was sick), and he found Sahl bin Hunaif there. Abu Talhah told someone to remove a blanket from beneath him, and Sahl said to him: "Why do you want to remove it?" He said: "Because there are images on it, and the Messenger of Allah [SAW] said what you know concerning them." He said: "Did he not say: Except for patterns on fabrics?" He said: "Yes, but this makes me feel more comfortable."
