حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي وَلَدَتْ وَلَدًا أَسْوَدَ قَالَ هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَمَا أَلْوَانُهَا قَالَ حُمْرٌ قَالَ هَلْ فِيهَا أَوْرَقُ قَالَ إِنَّ فِيهَا لَوُرْقًا قَالَ أَنَّى أَتَاهُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ قَالَ وَهَذَا عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ.
English Translation
A man from Banu Fazarah came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: 'My wife has given birth to a dark-skinned child.' He said: 'Do you have camels?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'What are their colors?' He said: 'Red.' He said: 'Are any of them grey?' He said: 'Yes, some are grey.' He said: 'Where did that come from?' He said: 'Perhaps a hereditary trait pulled it.' He said: 'And this child — perhaps a hereditary trait pulled it.'
