حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ مُطَرِّفٍ الرُّؤَاسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ أَرَادَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى بَعْضِ الأَعَاجِمِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّهُمْ لاَ يَقْرَءُونَ كِتَابًا إِلاَّ بِخَاتَمٍ فَاتَّخَذَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَنَقَشَ فِيهِ ‏ "‏ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Rapporté par Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه : Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ voulait écrire à certains souverains perses. On lui a dit qu’ils ne liraient pas une lettre sans sceau, alors il fit faire une bague en argent sur laquelle il fit graver : « Muhammad le Messager d’Allah »
