حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: أَتَى عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَنَا أَلْعَبُ مَعَ الْغِلْمَانِ، قَالَ: فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْنَا، فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى حَاجَةٍ، فَأَبْطَأْتُ عَلَى أُمِّي، فَلَمَّا جِئْتُ قَالَتْ: مَا حَبَسَكَ؟ قُلْتُ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِحَاجَةٍ، قَالَتْ: مَا حَاجَتُهُ؟ قُلْتُ: إِنَّهَا سِرٌّ، قَالَتْ: لَا تُحَدِّثَنَّ بِسِرِّ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحَدًا قَالَ أَنَسٌ: وَاللهِ لَوْ حَدَّثْتُ بِهِ أَحَدًا لَحَدَّثْتُكَ يَا ثَابِتُ.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) came to me as I was playing with playmates. He greeted and sent me on an errand and I made delay in going to my mother. When I came to her she said: What detained you? I said: Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) sent me on an errand. She said: What was the purpose? I said: It is something secret. Thereupon she said: Do not then divulge the secret of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) to anyone. Anas رضی اللہ عنہ said: By Allah, if I were to divulge it to anyone, then, O Thabit, I would have divulged it to you.
