Chapter 42 · Model Behavior of the Prophet (Kitab Al-Sunnah)حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ، عَنْ نُعَيْمِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَ: إِنْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ الْمُخْدَجُ لَمَعَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ نُجَالِسُهُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَكَانَ فَقِيرًا وَرَأَيْتُهُ مَعَ الْمَسَاكِينِ يَشْهَدُ طَعَامَ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مَعَ النَّاسِ، وَقَدْ كَسَوْتُهُ بُرْنُسًا لِي ، قَالَ أَبُو مَرْيَمَ: وَكَانَ الْمُخْدَجُ يُسَمَّى نَافِعًا ذَا الثُّدْيَةِ، وَكَانَ فِي يَدِهِ مِثْلُ ثَدْيِ الْمَرْأَةِ، عَلَى رَأْسِهِ حَلَمَةٌ مِثْلُ حَلَمَةِ الثَّدْيِ، عَلَيْهِ شُعَيْرَاتٌ مِثْلُ سِبَالَةِ السَّنَّوْرِ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَهُوَ عِنْدَ النَّاسِ اسْمُهُ حَرْقُوسُ.

This man with the crippled hand was on that day with us in the mosque. We would sit with him by day and by night, and he was a poor man. I saw him attending the meals of Ali (Allah be pleased with him) which he took with the people, and I clothed him with a cloak of mine. Abu Maryam said: The man with the crippled hand was called Nafi Dhu al-Thadyah (Nafi, man of nipple). He had in his hand something like a female breast with a nipple at it ends like the nipple of the female breast. If had some hair on it like the whiskers of cat. Abu Dawud said: Hw was known among the people by the name of Harqus.
