Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نُعْمٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ شَاهِدًا لاِبْنِ عُمَرَ وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ دَمِ الْبَعُوضِ‏.‏ فَقَالَ مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ فَقَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ‏.‏ قَالَ انْظُرُوا إِلَى هَذَا، يَسْأَلُنِي عَنْ دَمِ الْبَعُوضِ وَقَدْ قَتَلُوا ابْنَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ هُمَا رَيْحَانَتَاىَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Musa ibn Ismail narrated to us; Mahdi narrated to us; Ibn Abi Yaqqub narrated to us, from Ibn Abi Num, who said: I was present when a man asked Ibn Umar about the blood of a mosquito. He asked: Where are you from? The man said: From Iraq. Ibn Umar said: Look at this man, asking me about a mosquito’s blood, while they killed the son of the Prophet ﷺ. I heard the Prophet ﷺ say: They are my two fragrant flowers in this world.
