English Translation

'Ali ibn Ishaq told us: 'Abdullah told us: Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Rahman told us, from Mansur ibn 'Abd al-Rahman, from his mother, from Umm 'Uthman bint Sufyan, who was the mother of Banu Shaybah al-Akabir - Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Rahman said: she had given the pledge of allegiance to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him - that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, called Shaybah, who opened the door. When he entered the House and had finished and returned, and Shaybah too had returned, a messenger from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came saying, "Answer the call." So he went to him, and he said, "I saw a ram's horn in the House, so remove it." Mansur said: 'Abdullah ibn Musafi' told me, from my mother, from Umm 'Uthman bint Sufyan, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him in the account: "It is not fitting that there be anything in the House that distracts those who are praying."
