Hadith 43
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ الْعِجْلِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ التَّيْمِيِّ، تَيْمِ الرَّبَابِ قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعِي ابْنٌ لِي، قَالَ: فَأَرَيْتُهُ، فَقُلْتُ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ: «هَذَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَيْهِ ثَوْبَانِ أَخْضَرَانِ، وَلَهُ شَعْرٌ قَدْ عَلَاهُ الشَّيْبُ، وَشَيْبُهُ أَحْمَرُ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Rimtha Taymi (may Allah be pleased with him), he says that I presented myself in the noble service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and my son was also with me. Abu Rimtha (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I was introduced to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so when I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I immediately exclaimed that this is the Prophet of Allah Almighty. At that time, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing two green garments. On some of his blessed hair, the signs of old age were dominant, and the sign of old age was the red blessed hair.
