حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَخٍ لِي حِينَ وُلِدَ لِيُحَنِّکَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ فِي مِرْبَدٍ يَسِمُ غَنَمًا أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ فِي آذَانِهَا

Anas bin Malik said “I brought my brother when he was born to Prophet ﷺ to chew something for him and rub his palate with it and found him in a sheep pen branding the sheep, I think, on their ears. ”
