حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ لَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى الْعَجَمِ قِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّ الْعَجَمَ لَا يَقْبَلُونَ كِتَابًا إِلَّا عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ، فَاصْطَنَعَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِهِ فِي يَدِهِ

✧ When the Prophet of God ﷺ wanted to write to the non-Arabs, it was said to him: The non-Arabs do not accept a letter unless it has a seal. So he had a silver ring made; it is as if I am looking at its whiteness on his hand.
