English Translation

Bahz narrated to us, he said: ʿIkrimah ibn ʿAmmār al-Yamāmī narrated to us, he said: Iyās ibn Salamah ibn al-Akwaʿ narrated to us, that his father narrated to him, saying: I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saying to a man called Busr ibn Rāʿī al-ʿĪr, whom he saw eating with his left hand: "Eat with your right hand." He said: I cannot. He said: "May you never be able to!" And his right hand never reached his mouth after that. Abū al-Naḍr said in his narration: Ibn Rāʿī al-ʿĪr was from Ashjaʿ.
