باب ما جاء فى صفة مزاح رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
Chapter: What has been reported concerning the joking of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
The Prophet spoke truth even in jest
Tirmidhi's Shama'il 236 — The Prophet spoke truth even in jest
حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ: أَنبأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارِكِ، عَنِ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ تُدَاعِبُنَا قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَا أَقُولُ إِلَا حَقًّا»
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them all) asked: O Messenger of Allah! Do you also joke? He replied: “(Yes,) but I do not say anything except the truth.” Imam Tirmidhi says that the word «عربی عبارت» mentioned in this narration means «تداعبنا», that is, you joke with us.
