حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍأَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى الْعَجَمِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ الْعَجَمَ لَا يَقْبَلُونَ إِلَّا كِتَابًا عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ فَاصْطَنَعَ خَاتَمًا مِنْ فِضَّةٍ قَالَ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِهِ فِي يَدِهِ
English Translation
Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muhammad bin Al Mutsanna]; Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Mu'adz bin Hisyam]; Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Bapakku] dari [Qatadah] dari [Anas] bahwa ketika Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam hendak mengirim surat kepada orang-orang 'Ajam (selain orang Arab), dikatakan kepada beliau bahwa mereka (orang-orang 'Ajam) tidak mau membaca surat tanpa ada stempelnya. Maka Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam membuat sebuah cincin dari perak.' Aku seolah-olah masih melihat bagaimana cemerlangnya cincin itu di tangan beliau.

Imam Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj was a student of Imam al-Bukhari. He compiled Sahih Muslim selecting from approximately 300,000 hadiths, arranging his collection thematically and grouping all chains of each hadith together — making it uniquely easy to study the complete transmission history of a single narration.
Sahih Muslim took 15 years to complete. Its unique arrangement — all isnads for one hadith in one place — remains unmatched in the hadith literature.
