حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَلَمَّا أَرَادَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى الْعَجَمِ قِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ الْعَجَمَ لَا يَقْبَلُونَ إِلَّا كِتَابًا عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ فَاصْطَنَعَ خَاتَمًا قَالَ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِهِ فِي كَفِّهِقَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ
English Translation
Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ishaq bin Manshur] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Mu'adz bin Hisyam] telah menceritakan kepadaku [Ayahku] dari [Qatadah] dari [Anas bin Malik] ia berkata; "Saat Nabi Allah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam hendak mengirim surat kepada bangsa ajam (non Arab), dikatakan kepada beliau: "Sesungguhnya orang-orang ajam (non Arab) tidak mau menerima surat kecuali telah di bubuhi stempel. Beliau pun membuat stempel (cincin)." Anas berkata; "Sepertinya aku melihat putihnya telapak tangan beliau." Abu Isa berkata; Hadits ini hasan shahih.

Imam at-Tirmidhi was a student of Imam al-Bukhari and Abu Dawud. His collection is distinctive for including the grading (hasan, sahih, da'if) of each hadith alongside notes on which madhab (legal school) relies on it — making it both a hadith collection and a work of hadith criticism.
Jami' at-Tirmidhi is the only collection in the Kutub al-Sittah where the compiler grades every hadith himself, notes scholarly differences, and indicates legal usage.
