Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ كَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم جَارٌ فَارِسِيٌّ طَيِّبُ الْمَرَقَةِ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَعِنْدَهُ عَائِشَةُ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ بِيَدِهِ أَنْ تَعَالَ وَأَوْمَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَى عَائِشَةَ أَىْ وَهَذِهِ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ الآخَرُ هَكَذَا بِيَدِهِ أَنْ لاَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا ‏.‏

Translation

Abu Bakr bin Nafi informed us; Bahz narrated to us; Hammad bin Salamah narrated to us; Thabit narrated to us, from Anas, who said: The Messenger of Allah had a Persian neighbor whose broth was delicious. One day he came to the Messenger of Allah while A'ishah was with him. He beckoned to him with his hand to come, and the Messenger of Allah gestured toward A'ishah, meaning, ‘And her too?’ The other man gestured with his hand like this: no—twice or three times.
