Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، دُحَيْمٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ، - هُوَ ابْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، - هُوَ ابْنُ سُمَيْعٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ - عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ جَاءَ صَعْصَعَةُ بْنُ صُوحَانَ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ انْهَنَا عَمَّا نَهَاكَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏ قَالَ نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ وَالنَّقِيرِ وَالْجِعَةِ وَنَهَانَا عَنْ حَلْقَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَلُبْسِ الْحَرِيرِ وَلُبْسِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَالْمِيثَرَةِ الْحَمْرَاءِ ‏.‏
