[Machine] I asked the Prophet ﷺ about the food of the Christians, and he said, "Do not let their food enter your stomach, as you have distanced Christianity with it." He said, "I saw him placing one hand on the other." He said, "And I saw him turning away from his right side and sometimes from his left side."  

أحمد:٢١٩٧١حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ صُبَيْحٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ الْهُلْبِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ طَعَامِ النَّصَارَى فَقَالَ لَا يَحِيكَنَّ فِي صَدْرِكَ طَعَامٌ ضَارَعْتَ فِيهِ النَّصْرَانِيَّةَ قَالَ وَرَأَيْتُهُ يَضَعُ إِحْدَى يَدَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَىقَالَ وَرَأَيْتُهُ يَنْصَرِفُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَمَرَّةً عَنْ شِمَالِهِ
