حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، وَمَخْلَدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، أَخْبَرَنَا (٢) سَعِيدٌ الْمَعْنَى، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ، سَمِعَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ صَوْتَ زَمَّارَةِ رَاعٍ، فَوَضَعَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ وَعَدَلَ رَاحِلَتَهُ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: يَا (٣) نَافِعُ أَتَسْمَعُ؟ فَأَقُولُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَيَمْضِي حَتَّى قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ (٤) وَأَعَادَ الرَّاحِلَةَ إِلَى الطَّرِيقِ وَقَالَ: " رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ، ، اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَسَمِعَ صَوْتَ زَمَّارَةِ رَاعٍ فَصَنَعَ مِثْلَ هَذَا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

Nafi’ (may Allah have mercy on him), who was the freed slave of Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), says that once Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) was walking along a road when he heard the sound of a shepherd singing and playing music. He put his fingers in his ears and left that path, and kept asking me at intervals, “Nafi’! Can you still hear the sound?” If I replied “yes,” he would keep walking, until when I said “no,” he removed his hands from his ears and put his mount back on the path. He then said, “I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) do the same when he heard the sound of a shepherd singing and playing music.”
