عَطَاءٌ مَوْلَى السَّائِبِ عَنِ السَّائِبِ

[Machine] In the middle of his head, his hair was black, while the rest of his head and his beard were white. So I said to him, "By Allah, I have never seen anyone with a head like yours, this part is white and this part is black." He said, "Shouldn't I inform you, O my son?" I said, "Yes." He said, "I used to play with young boys, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me, so I presented myself to him and greeted him. He said, 'And upon you. Who are you?' I said, 'I am Sa'ib bin Yazid, the brother of Namir bin Qasit.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped my head and said, 'May Allah bless you.' He said, 'By Allah, it will never turn white again.' Or he said, 'It will always remain like this.'"

كَانَ وَسَطُ رَأْسِ السَّائِبِ أَسْوَدَ وَبَقِيَّةُ رَأْسَهِ وَلِحْيَتُهُ أَبْيَضَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا سَيِّدِي وَاللهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ رَأْسَكَ هَذَا قَطُّ هَذَا أَبْيَضُ وَهَذَا أَسْوَدُ قَالَ أَوَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ يَا بُنَيَّ؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مَعَ صِبْيَانٍ نَلْعَبُ فَمَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَرَضْتُ لَهُ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «وَعَلَيْكَ مَنْ أَنْتَ؟» فَقُلْتُ أَنَا السَّائِبُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ أَخُو النَّمِرِ بْنِ قَاسِطٍ فَمَسَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسِي وَقَالَ «بَارَكَ اللهُ فِيكَ» قَالَ فَوَاللهِ لَا يَبْيَضُّ أَبَدًا أَوْ قَالَ لَا يَزَالُ هَكَذَا أَبَدًا
