عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مر عليه حمار قد وُسِمَ في وجهه، فقال:«لعن الله الذي وسمه». وفي رواية لمسلم أيضا: نهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن الضرب في الوجه، وعن الوسم في الوجه»

“Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a donkey that had been branded on the face passed by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) so he said: “May Allah curse the one who branded it.” Another narration by Imām Muslim reads: "The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade striking the face and branding on the face."”
