An Nasai
Sahih (Darussalam)
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ سُمَيْعٍ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ قَالَ صَعْصَعَةُ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ كَرَّمَ اللَّهُ وَجْهَهُ انْهَنَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَمَّا نَهَاكَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم . قَالَ نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ .
Sa'sa'ah said to 'Ali bin Abi Talib - may Allah honor his face - :
"Forbid to us, O Commander of the Believers! What the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade to you." He said: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade me from using Ad-Dubba' and Al-Hantam."
