Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرَةَ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْخَذْفِ فَأَخَذَ ابْنُ عَمٍّ لَهُ فَقَالَ عَنْ هَذَا وَخَذَفَ فَقَالَ أَلَا أُرَانِي أُخْبِرُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْهُ وَأَنْتَ تَخْذِفُ وَاللَّهِ لَا أُكَلِّمُكَ عَزْمَةً مَا عِشْتُ أَوْ مَا بَقِيتُ أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا.
English Translation
'Affan narrated to us: Hammad b. Salama narrated to us: Thabit informed us that Abu Bakra said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade flicking pebbles. A cousin of his took one and said: "[Forbidding] this?" and flicked it. He said: "Am I not telling you of the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, that he forbade it, and yet you flick pebbles? By God, I will not speak to you — a solemn vow — as long as I live," or something to that effect.
