Sahih al-Bukhari 2216
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مُشْرِكٌ مُشْعَانٌّ طَوِيلٌ بِغَنَمٍ يَسُوقُهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " بَيْعًا أَمْ عَطِيَّةً أَوْ قَالَ أَمْ هِبَةً ". قَالَ لاَ بَلْ بَيْعٌ. فَاشْتَرَى مِنْهُ شَاةً.
Abu al-Numan narrated to us: Mutamir ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from his father, from Abu Uthman, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said: We were with the Prophet when a tall polytheist with shaggy, unkempt hair came driving sheep. The Prophet said, “Is this a sale or a gift?” or he said, “Is it a gift?” The man replied, “No, it is a sale.” The Prophet bought a sheep from him.
Translation notes
The Arabic describes the man as tall and shaggy-haired, and records uncertainty in the wording of the Prophet question.
