General Subjects
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ مُحَيِّصَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَحَدِ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ أَنَّهُ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي إِجَارَةِ الْحَجَّامِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْهَا فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَسْأَلُهُ وَيَسْتَأْذِنُهُ حَتَّى قَالَ
" اعْلِفْهُ نُضَّاحَكَ " . يَعْنِي رَقِيقَكَ .
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Ibn Muhayyisa al-Ansari,
one of the Banu Haritha, that he asked permission from the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to give payment for
cupping, and he forbade him to do it. He continued to ask and seek his
permission until he said, "Feed the ones who drive your water-carrying
camels," meaning "your slaves."
