حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْوَزِيرُ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ الْجَوَازُ الْمَكِّيُّ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ ثنا أَبُو صَخْرٍ وَاصِلُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ السُّلَمِيُّ ثُمَّ النَّاصِرِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَعُمُومَتِي عَنْ جَدِّي مَالِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ وَخَيْبَرَ وَالطَّائِفِ وَكَانَ رَجُلًا شَاعِرًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَفْتِنِي فِي الشِّعْرِ فَقَالَ «لِأَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ مَا بَيْنَ لَبَّتِكَ إِلَى عَاتِقِكَ قَيْحًا خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ شِعَرًا» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ امْسَحْ عَلَى رَأْسِي فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِي فَمَا قُلْتُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بَيْتَ شِعَرٍ وَلَقَدْ عُمِّرَ مَالِكٌ حَتَّى شَابَ رَأْسُهُ وَلِحْيَتُهُ وَمَا شَابَ مَوْضِعُ يَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

✧ That he was present with the Prophet ﷺ on the day of the conquest [of Makkah], at Khaybar, and at al-Ta'if. He was a poet, and he said, "O Messenger of God, give me a ruling about poetry." He said, "For the space between your chest and your shoulder to be filled with pus is better than for it to be filled with poetry." I said, "O Messenger of God, wipe over my head." He placed his hand on my head, and after that I never uttered a line of poetry. Malik lived to old age until his head and beard turned white, but the place where the hand of the Messenger of God ﷺ had been did not turn white.
