وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ أَنَّ جَدَّهُ عَرفجةَ بن أسعد قُطِعَ أَنْفُهُ يَوْمَ الْكُلَابِ فَاتَّخَذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ فَأَنْتَنَ عَلَيْهِ
فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ
Abd ar-Rahman ibn Tarafa told that his grandfather ‘Arfaja ibn Asad who had had his nose cut off at the battle of al-Kulab (This was a battle about ten years before the Hijra in which the tribe of Tamim was engaged) got a silver nose, but it developed a stench, so the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) ordered him to get a gold nose. Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud and Nasai transmitted it.’
