ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ أَنْ يُنْقَشَ فِي الْخَوَاتِيمِ بِمَا نَقْشُهُ ﷺ فِي خَاتَمِهِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "I have made a ring and nobody should engrave anything on it."  

ابن حبّان:٥٤٩٧أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ صُهَيْبٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنِّي اصْطَنَعْتُ خَاتَمًا فَلَا يَنْقُشْ أَحَدٌ عَلَى نَقْشِهِ»

اصْطَنَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَاتَمًا فَقَالَ إِنَّا قَدِ اصْطَنَعْنَا خَاتَمًا وَنَقَشْنَا فِيهِ نَقْشًا فَلَا يَنْقُشُ أَحَدٌ عَلَيْهِ
