حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ حَدَّثَنِي شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُطَرِّفَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ سَيِّدُ قُرَيْشٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ السَّيِّدُ اللَّهُ قَالَ أَنْتَ أَفْضَلُهَا فِيهَا قَوْلًا وَأَعْظَمُهَا فِيهَا طَوْلًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَقُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِقَوْلِهِ وَلَا يَسْتَجِرُّهُ الشَّيْطَانُ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Hajjaj told us: Shu'bah told me: I heard Qatadah say: I heard Mutarrif ibn 'Abd Allah ibn al-Shikhkhir narrating from his father, who said: A man came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: You are the master of Quraysh. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The Master is Allah. He said: You are the most excellent of them in speech and the greatest of them in generosity. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Let each of you speak his own words, and let not Satan draw him along.
