Arabic Text
قَالَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَكْرَهُ الشِّكَالَ مِنْ الْخَيْلِ أَوْ الْأَشْكَالَ قَالَ عَبْد اللَّهِ قَالَ أَبِي شُعْبَةُ يُخْطِئُ فِي هَذَا الْقَوْلِ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ يَزِيدَ وَإِنَّمَا هُوَ سَلْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ النَّخَعِيُّ
English Translation
He (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked the shikal — or ashkal — marking pattern in horses. 'Abdullah said: My father said: Shu'bah errs in attributing this to 'Abdullah ibn Yazid; rather it is Salm ibn 'Abd al-Rahman al-Nakha'i.
