Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَادٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَنْجَشَةُ، وَكَانَ حَسَنَ الصَّوْتِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ رُوَيْدَكَ يَا أَنْجَشَةُ، لاَ تَكْسِرِ الْقَوَارِيرَ ‏" ‏‏.‏ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ يَعْنِي ضَعَفَةَ النِّسَاءِ‏.‏

Translation

Ishaq narrated to us: Habban informed us: Hammam narrated to us: Qatadah narrated to us: Anas ibn Malik narrated to us, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had a camel driver called Anjashah, whose voice was beautiful. The Prophet said to him, ‘Slow down, Anjashah; do not break the crystal vessels.’ Qatadah said: He meant the fragile women.
