Hadith text

Narrated Abu Huraira:A bedouin came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "My wife has delivered a black boy, and I suspect that he is not my child." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to him, "Have you got camels?" The bedouin said, "Yes." The Prophet said, "What color are they?" The bedouin said, "They are red." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Are any of them Grey?" He said, "There are Grey ones among them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whence do you think this color came to them?" The bedouin said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! It resulted from hereditary disposition." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "And this (i.e., your child) has inherited his color from his ancestors." The Prophet (ﷺ) did not allow him to deny his paternity of the child

Abu Huraira bataate hain: Ek badawi Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ke paas aaya aur kaha, 'Meri biwi ne ek kaala ladka janm diya hai, aur mujhe shak hai ke ye mera bacha nahi hai.' Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne usse kaha, 'Kya tumhaare paas oont hain?' Badawi ne kaha, 'Haan.' Nabi (SAW) ne pucha, 'Unka rang kaisa hai?' Badawi ne kaha, 'Wo laal hain.' Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'Kya unmein se koi khaakstari (grey) rangat ka bhi hai?' Usne kaha, 'Unmein khaakstari rangat ke bhi hain.' Nabi (SAW) ne pucha, 'To tumhein kya lagta hai ye rangat unmein kahaan se aayi?' Badawi ne kaha, 'Aye Allah ke Rasool! Ye virasat (poorvajon se) mili hai.' Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'Aur ye (yaani tumhaara bacha) bhi apni rangat apne poorvajon se pai hai.' Nabi (SAW) ne unhein bacche ki apni sant-aan hone se inkaar karne ki ijaazat nahi di.
