Sahih al-Bukhari 6780
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ اسْمُهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ، وَكَانَ يُلَقَّبُ حِمَارًا، وَكَانَ يُضْحِكُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَدْ جَلَدَهُ فِي الشَّرَابِ، فَأُتِيَ بِهِ يَوْمًا فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَجُلِدَ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْهُ مَا أَكْثَرَ مَا يُؤْتَى بِهِ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لاَ تَلْعَنُوهُ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ يُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ".
Yahya ibn Bukayr narrated to us; al-Layth narrated to me, saying: Khalid ibn Yazid narrated to me, from Said ibn Abi Hilal, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from his father, from Umar ibn al-Khattab, that during the time of the Prophet ﷺ there was a man named Abdullah, nicknamed Donkey, who used to make the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laugh. The Prophet ﷺ had flogged him for drinking. One day he was brought in, and the Prophet ﷺ ordered that he be flogged. A man among the people said: O Allah, curse him! How often he is brought in! The Prophet ﷺ said: Do not curse him, for by Allah, I know that he loves Allah and His Messenger.
