Ahmad ibn Isa narrated to us, Ibn Wahb informed us, Amr ibn al-Harith informed me, from Yazid ibn Abi Habib, that Na'im Abu Abd Allah, the freed slave of Umm Salamah, narrated to him that he heard Ibn Abbas say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saw a donkey with a brand on its face and disapproved of that. He said: "By Allah, I will not brand it except on the farthest part of the face." So he ordered a donkey of his to be branded on its buttocks, and he was the first to brand the buttocks.
