Al-Adab Al-Mufrad
Book 56, Hadith 2
حَدَّثَنَا خَلاَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ دَخَلُوا عَلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ، فَرَأَوْا عَلَى خَادِمٍ لَهُمْ طَوْقًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَنَظَرَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ، فَقَالَ: مَا أَفْطَنَكُمْ لِلشَّرِّ.

Khallad related to us: ‘Abd al-‘Aziz related to us, from Nafi‘, that a group of people from Iraq came to Ibn ‘Umar. They saw a servant of theirs wearing a gold neck-ring and glanced at one another. He said: ‘How perceptive you are when it comes to evil!’
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic says a gold neck-ring/collar (طوق), not a crown.
طَوْقًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ
طوق denotes a collar or neck-ring; the English witness renders it as a crown.
None; the translation follows the Arabic noun.
