‏ ‏حَدَّثَنَا ‏ ‏سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُيَيْنَةَ ‏ ‏عَنْ ‏ ‏مُوسَى بْنِ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ ‏ ‏أَنَّ ‏ ‏مَرْيَمَ ‏ ‏فَقَدَتْ ‏ ‏عِيسَى ‏ ‏عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام ‏ ‏فَدَارَتْ بِطَلَبِهِ فَلَقِيَتْ ‏ ‏حَائِكًا ‏ ‏فَلَمْ يُرْشِدْهَا فَدَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَلَا تَزَالُ تَرَاهُ تَائِهًا فَلَقِيَتْ خَيَّاطًا فَأَرْشَدَهَا فَدَعَتْ لَهُ فَهُمْ يُؤْنَسُ إِلَيْهِمْ ‏ ‏أَيْ يُجْلَسُ إِلَيْهِمْ ‏

English Translation

It was narrated from Musa ibn Abi Aisha that Maryam lost track of Isa (peace be upon him) and went searching for him. She met a weaver who did not guide her, so she cursed him, and he is always seen wandering. Then she met a tailor who guided her and she prayed for him, and tailors are beloved — that is, people like to sit with them.
