حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَبُو عَاصِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنِي زِيَادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ أَبَا مَيْمُونَةَ سَلْمَى مَوْلًى مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلَ صِدْقٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا جَالِسٌ مَعَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ جَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَارِسِيَّةٌ مَعَهَا ابْنٌ لَهَا فَادَّعَيَاهُ وَقَدْ طَلَّقَهَا زَوْجُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَطَنَتْ لَهُ بِالْفَارِسِيَّةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَوْجِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ بِابْنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ:‏‏‏‏ اسْتَهِمَا عَلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَطَنَ لَهَا بِذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَاءَ زَوْجُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ يُحَاقُّنِي فِي وَلَدِي ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي لَا أَقُولُ هَذَا إِلَّا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا قَاعِدٌ عِنْدَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّ زَوْجِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ بِابْنِي وَقَدْ سَقَانِي مِنْ بِئْرِ أَبِي عِنَبَةَ وَقَدْ نَفَعَنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ اسْتَهِمَا عَلَيْهِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ زَوْجُهَا:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ يُحَاقُّنِي فِي وَلَدِي ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ هَذَا أَبُوكَ وَهَذِهِ أُمُّكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَخُذْ بِيَدِ أَيِّهِمَا شِئْتَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ أُمِّهِ فَانْطَلَقَتْ بِهِ.

While I was sitting with Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ, a Persian woman came to him along with a son of hers. She had been divorced by her husband and they both claimed him. She said: Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ, speaking to him in Persian, my husband wishes to take my son away. Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ said: Cast lots for him, saying it to her in a foreign language. Then her husband came and asked: Who is disputing with me about my son? Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ said: O Allah, I do not say this, except that I heard a woman who came to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم while I was sitting with him, and she said: My husband wishes to take away my son, Messenger of Allah, and he draws water for me from the well of Abu Inabah, and he has been good to me. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Cast lots for him. Her husband said: Who is disputing with me about my son? The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: This is your father and this your mother, so take whichever of them you wish by the hand. So he took his mother's hand and she went away with him.
