Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَلَّبِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَسَمِعَ لَعْنَةً فَقَالَ "مَا هَذِهِ " . قَالُوا هَذِهِ فُلاَنَةُ لَعَنَتْ رَاحِلَتَهَا . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " ضَعُوا عَنْهَا فَإِنَّهَا مَلْعُونَةٌ " . فَوَضَعُوا عَنْهَا . قَالَ عِمْرَانُ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا نَاقَةً وَرْقَاءَ .
