حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلِي أَخٌ صَغِيرٌ يُكْنَى:‏‏‏‏ أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ لَهُ نُغَرٌ يَلْعَبُ بِهِ فَمَاتَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَآهُ حَزِينًا،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا شَأْنُهُ ؟ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ مَاتَ نُغَرُهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مَا فَعَلَ النُّغَيْرُ .

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم used to come to visit us. I had a younger brother who was called Abu ‘Umair by Kunyah (surname). He had a sparrow with which he played, but it died. So one day the prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم came to see him and saw him grieved. He asked: What is the matter with him? The people replied: His sparrow has died. He then said: Abu ‘Umair! What has happened to the little sparrow?
