Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ اصْطَنَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ خَاتَمًا فَقَالَ " إِنَّا قَدِ اصْطَنَعْنَا خَاتَمًا وَنَقَشْنَا فِيهِ نَقْشًا فَلاَ يَنْقُشَنَّ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ " .
Translation
It was narrated that Anas ibn Malik said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a ring made. He said, “We have had a ring made and engraved an inscription on it, so no one should engrave upon it.”’
