أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ، بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ أَبُو سَهْلِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الْقَطَّانُ، ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ الْقَاضِي، ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ أَعْرَابِيٌّ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي وَلَدَتْ غُلَامًا أَسْوَدَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ "؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " مَا أَلْوَانُهَا "؟ قَالَ: حُمْرٌ، قَالَ: " هَلْ فِيهَا مِنْ أَوْرَقَ "، قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " فَأَنَّى كَانَ ذَلِكَ "؟ قَالَ: أُرَاهُ عِرْقًا نَزَعَهُ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَعَلَّ ابْنَكَ هَذَا نَزْعَةُ عِرْقٌ ". رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! My wife has given birth to a black boy. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "Do you have camels?" He said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What are their colours?" He said: Red. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Is there any ash-coloured (awraq) one among them?" He said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Then where did that come from?" He said: I think a strain (in its ancestry) drew it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Perhaps this son of yours too was drawn by a strain."
Bukhari recorded it in the Sahih from Isma'il bin Abi Uways, and Muslim recorded it from al-Zuhri through another chain.
