وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ لَيُسْحَبُ لسانُه الفرسَخ والفرسخين يتوطَّؤُه النَّاس» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَيْثُ غَرِيب
Ibn `Umar reported God's messenger as saying, "The infidel will drag his tongue a league and two leagues with people treading on it." Ahmad and Tirmidhi transmitted it, the latter saying this is a gharib tradition.
