Show the chain

حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ وَابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ الْمَعْنَى عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ كِتَابًا إِلَى الرُّومِ؛ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَخْتُومًا لَمْ يُقْرَأْ كِتَابُكَ. فَاتَّخَذَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ، وَنَقَشَ فِيهِ: مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ، فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِهِ فِي كَفِّهِ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ wanted to write a letter to the Byzantines. It was said to him: "If it is not sealed, your letter will not be read." So he acquired a silver signet ring and engraved on it: 'Muḥammad, the Messenger of Allah.' It is as if I can see its whiteness in his palm.
