[Machine] We said, "If we meet Anas bin Malik, let's ask him if they used to gamble during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So we went to him while he was in his palace in the corner and asked him. We said to him, "O Abu Hamzah, did you used to gamble during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to gamble?" He said, "Yes, indeed. I swear by Allah, he used to gamble and he once placed a bet on a horse called Sabhah, and it outran the people, so he was pleased with that." Abdullah said, "He means he was amazed by it."  

قُلْنَا لَوْ مِلْنَا إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ أَكَانُوا يُرَاهِنُونَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ وَهُوَ فِي قَصْرِهِ فِي الزَّاوِيَةِ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ أَكُنْتُمْ تُرَاهِنُونَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُرَاهِنُ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ لَقَدْ رَاهَنَ وَاللَّهِ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ سَبْحَةُ فَسَبَقَ النَّاسَ فَأنْهَشَّ لِذَلِكَ وَأَعْجَبَهُ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أنْهَشّهُ يَعْنِي أَعْجَبَهُ
