حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ نُبَيْهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ اشْتَكَى عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْمَرٍ عَيْنَيْهِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ - قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَهُوَ أَمِيرُ الْمَوْسِمِ - مَا يَصْنَعُ بِهِمَا قَالَ

اضْمِدْهُمَا بِالصَّبِرِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ - رضى الله عنه - يُحَدِّثُ ذَلِكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم

Nubaih bin Wahb said ‘Umar bin ‘Ubaid Allah bin Ma’mar had a complaint in his eyes. He sent (someone) to Aban bin ‘Uthman - the narrator Sufyan said that he was the chief of pilgrims during the season of Hajj – asking him what he should do with them. He said Apply aloes to them, for I heard ‘Uthaman narrating this on the authority of the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ).

Reported by Abu Dawud (No. 1838).

( أَمِير الْمَوْسِم ) : قَالَ فِي الْمِصْبَاح : السِّمَة هِيَ الْعَلَامَة وَمِنْهُ الْمَوْسِم , لِأَنَّهُ مُعَلَّم يُجْتَمَع إِلَيْهِ اِنْتَهَى. وَالْمَعْنَى أَنَّهُ كَانَ أَمِير الْحُجَّاج فِي مَوْسِم الْحَجّ ( قَالَ : أُضَمِّدُهُمَا بِالصَّبِرِ ) : بِفَتْحٍ ثُمَّ كَسْر دَوَاء مَعْرُوف مُرّ. قَالَ الْخَطَّابِيُّ : الصَّبِر لَيْسَ بِطِيبٍ , وَلِذَلِكَ رَخَّصَ لَهُ أَنْ يَتَعَالَج بِهِ. فَأَمَّا الْكُحْل الَّذِي لَا طِيب فِيهِ فَلَا بَأْس بِهِ. وَقَالَ الشَّافِعِيّ : وَأَنَا لَهُ فِي النِّسَاء أَشَدّ كَرَاهَة مِنِّي لَهُ فِي الرِّجَال وَلَا أَعْلَم عَلَى وَاحِد مِنْهُمَا الْفِدْيَة. وَرَخَّصَ فِي الْكُحْل لِلْمُحْرِمِ سُفْيَان الثَّوْرِيّ وَأَبُو حَنِيفَة وَأَصْحَابه وَأَحْمَد وَإِسْحَاق. وَك…
