حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى الْأَعَاجِمِ، قِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّهُمْ لَا يَقْبَلُونَ كِتَابًا إِلَّا بِخَاتَمٍ، قَالَ: فَاتَّخَذَ خَاتَمًا فَنَقَشَ فِيهِ: مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ
