[Machine] "To me, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Abu Zaid, come closer to me and wipe my back and uncover his back.' So I wiped his back and placed the ring between my fingers. He said, 'Then I winked.' It was asked, 'What is the ring?' He said, 'Hair gathered on his shoulder.'"  

أحمد:٢٢٨٨٩حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَزْرَةُ حَدَّثَنَا عِلْبَاءُ بْنُ أَحْمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زَيْدٍ قَالَ قَالَ

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَبَا زَيْدٍ ادْنُ مِنِّي وَامْسَحْ ظَهْرِي وَكَشَفَ ظَهْرَهُ فَمَسَحْتُ ظَهْرَهُ وَجَعَلْتُ الْخَاتَمَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِي قَالَ فَغَمَزْتُهَا قَالَ فَقِيلَ وَمَا الْخَاتَمُ؟ قَالَ شَعَرٌ مُجْتَمِعٌ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ
