[Machine] I met a man in Mecca from the people of Asqalan, known as Abu Al-Hasan, who told me about Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Ali, who narrated from Ibn Rukana, who narrated from his father, that Rukana wrestled with the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet ﷺ defeated him. Rukana said, "I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'The difference between us and the polytheists is the turbans on our heads.'"  

الطبراني:٤٦١٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ قَالَا ثنا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ الْكِلَابِيُّ قَالَ

لَقِيتُ رَجُلًا بِمَكَّةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ عَسْقَلَانَ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ ابْنِ رُكَانَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رُكَانَةَ صَارَعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَصَرَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ رُكَانَةُ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «فَرْقُ مَا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ الْعَمَائِمُ عَلَى الْقَلَانِسِ»
