[Machine] A woman from the tribe of Sulaym informed me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a message to Uthman ibn Talhah and said, "A woman asked Uthman ibn Talhah: 'Why did the Prophet ﷺ invite you?' He replied, 'When I entered the house, I saw the two horns of a ram, and I forgot to tell you to cover them. Cover them, for there should not be anything in the house that distracts the one who is praying.'" Sufyan said, "The two horns of the ram remained in the house until the house burned down and they burned with it."
أَخْبَرَتْنِي امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ وَلَدَتْ عَامَّةَ أَهْلِ دَارِنَا أَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً إِنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ طَلْحَةَ لِمَ دَعَاكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ رَأَيْتُ قَرْنَيِ الْكَبْشِ حِينَ دَخَلْتُ الْبَيْتَ فَنَسِيتُ أَنْ آمُرَكَ أَنْ تُخَمِّرَهُمَا فَخَمِّرْهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْبَيْتِ شَيْءٌ يَشْغَلُ الْمُصَلِّيَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ لَمْ تَزَلْ قَرْنَا الْكَبْشِ فِي الْبَيْتِ حَتَّى احْتَرَقَ الْبَيْتُ فَاحْتَرَقَا
