Hadith 581
Musnad 'Ali Ibn Abi Talib
It was narrated from Husain, from his father, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Do not stare at lepers, and if you speak to them, let there be a distance of a spear between you and them.”
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّرْجُمَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفَرَجُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ أُمِّهِ، فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا تُدِيمُوا النَّظَرَ إِلَى الْمُجَذَّمِينَ وَإِذَا كَلَّمْتُمُوهُمْ فَلْيَكُنْ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُمْ قِيدُ رُمْحٍ.
