حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ أَبَا أُسَامَةَ أَخْبَرَهُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُفَضَّلِ بْنِ يُونُسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي يَسَارٍ الْقُرَشِيِّ،‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِمُخَنَّثٍ قَدْ خَضَّبَ يَدَيْهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ بِالْحِنَّاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا بَالُ هَذَا ؟ فَقِيلَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَتَشَبَّهُ بِالنِّسَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَنُفِيَ إِلَى النَّقِيعِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَلَا نَقْتُلُهُ ؟ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنِّي نُهِيتُ عَنْ قَتْلِ الْمُصَلِّينَ قَالَ أَبُو أُسَامَةَ:‏‏‏‏ وَالنَّقِيعُ نَاحِيَةٌ عَنْ الْمَدِينَةِ وَلَيْسَ بِالْبَقِيعِ.

A hermaphrodite (mukhannath) who had dyed his hands and feet with henna was brought to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He asked: What is the matter with this man? He was told: Messenger of Allah! he affects women's get-up. So he ordered regarding him and he was banished to an-Naqi'. The people said: Messenger of Allah! should we not kill him? He said: I have been prohibited from killing people who pray. Abu Usamah said: Naqi' is a region near Madina and not a Baqi'.
