أَخْبَرَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ الْخِرِّيتِ عَنْ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ قَالَ
أُجْرِيَتِ الْخَيْلُ فِي زَمَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ وَالْحَكَمُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ عَلَى الْبَصْرَةِ فَأَتَيْنَا الرِّهَانَ فَلَمَّا جَاءَتِ الْخَيْلُ قَالَ قُلْنَا لَوْ مِلْنَا إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ أَكَانُوا يُرَاهِنُونَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ وَهُوَ فِي قَصْرِهِ فِي الزَّاوِيَةِ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ أَكُنْتُمْ تُرَاهِنُونَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُرَاهِنُ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ لَقَدْ رَاهَنَ وَاللَّهِ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ سَبْحَةُ فَسَبَقَ النَّاسَ فَأنْهَشَّ لِذَلِكَ وَأَعْجَبَهُ»

✧ Horses were raced in the time of al-Hajjaj, and al-Hakam b. Ayyub was over Basra. We came to the race, and when the horses arrived, we said: Let us go to Anas b. Malik and ask him whether they used to bet on races during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We came to him in his palace in the corner and asked him, saying: O Abu Hamza, did you bet on races during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ bet? He said: “Yes, by Allah, he bet on a horse of his called Subha; it outpaced the people, and he was delighted and pleased by that.”
