حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ هِلَالَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ قَذَفَ امْرَأَتَهُ بِشَرِيكِ ابْنِ سَحْمَاءَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " انْظُرُوهَا، فَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ جَعْدًا أَكْحَلَ، حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ، فَهُوَ لِشَرِيكِ ابْنِ سَحْمَاءَ، وَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أَبْيَضَ سَبْطًا قَضِيءَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ، فَهُوَ لِهِلَالِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ ". فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ جَعْدًا أَكْحَلَ حَمْشَ السَّاقَيْنِ (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Hilal bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) accused his wife of committing adultery with Shareek bin Samha. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Take care of this woman. If she gives birth to a child with curly hair, black eyes, and thin shins, then the child will be that of Shareek bin Samha. But if she gives birth to a fair-skinned child with straight hair and deep-set eyes, then the child will be that of Hilal bin Umayyah. So, when the woman gave birth, the child had the first set of characteristics (i.e., those of Shareek bin Samha).
