Sahih (Darussalam)
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ زَاذَانَ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ قُلْتُ حَدِّثْنِي بِشَىْءٍ، سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ، رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الأَوْعِيَةِ وَفَسِّرْهُ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْحَنْتَمِ وَهُوَ الَّذِي تُسَمُّونَهُ أَنْتُمُ الْجَرَّةَ وَنَهَى عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَهُوَ الَّذِي تُسَمُّونَهُ أَنْتُمُ الْقَرْعَ وَنَهَى عَنِ النَّقِيرِ وَهِيَ النَّخْلَةُ يَنْقُرُونَهَا وَنَهَى عَنِ الْمُزَفَّتِ وَهُوَ الْمُقَيَّرُ .
Zadan said:
"I asked 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: 'Tell me of something that you heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) concerning vessels and explain it.' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade Al-Hantam, which are what you call earthenware jars. And he forbade Ad-Dubba' which are what you call squash. And he forbade An-Naqir, which are hollowed-out date palm wood. And he forbade Al-Muzaffat which are (Al-Muqayyar) vessels daubed with tar.'"
