Signet-Rings (Kitab Al-Khatam)
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَزِيَادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ أَبُو عَتَّابٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَكِينٍ، نُوحُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنِي إِيَاسُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْمُعَيْقِيبِ، وَجَدُّهُ، مِنْ قِبَلِ أُمِّهِ أَبُو ذُبَابٍ عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ كَانَ خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنْ حَدِيدٍ مَلْوِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ فِضَّةٌ . قَالَ فَرُبَّمَا كَانَ فِي يَدِهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ الْمُعَيْقِيبُ عَلَى خَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
