حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى الْأَعَاجِمِ فَقِيلَ إِنَّهُمْ لَا يَقْبَلُونَ كِتَابًا إِلَّا بِنَقْشٍ فَاتَّخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَنَقَشَ فِيهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Muhammad ibn Bishr told us: Sa'id ibn Abi 'Arubah told us, from Qatadah, from Anas ibn Malik, who narrated to them that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, wanted to write to the foreign rulers, but it was said to him that they would not accept a letter unless it bore a seal. So the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had a signet ring made of silver, and engraved on it: "Muhammad, Messenger of Allah."
