(4) – باب الرُّخْصَةِ فِي اللَّعِبِ الَّذِي لاَ مَعْصِيَةَ فِيهِ فِي أَيَّامِ الْعِيدِ
(4) – Concession Allowing Play That Involves No Disobedience During The Days Of 'Id
Sahih Muslim 892f
'A'isha reported that some Abyssinians came and gave a demonstration of armed fight on the 'Id day in the mosque. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ invited me (to see that fight). I placed my head on his shoulder and began to see their sport till it was I who turned away from watching them.
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ جَاءَ حَبَشٌ يَزْفِنُونَ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَدَعَانِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَوَضَعْتُ رَأْسِي عَلَى مَنْكِبِهِ فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَنَا الَّتِي أَنْصَرِفُ عَنِ النَّظَرِ إِلَيْهِمْ.
