حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ حُضَيْنِ بْنِ الْمُنْذِرِ أَبِي سَاسَانَ عَنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ قُنْفُذٍ
أَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَبُولُ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ اعْتَذَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي كَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَ اللَّهَ ﷻ إِلاَّ عَلَى طُهْرٍ أَوْ قَالَ عَلَى طَهَارَةٍ

Muhajir came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was urinating. He saluted him. The Prophet ﷺ did not return the salutation to him until he performed ablution. He then apologised to him, saying: I disliked remembering Allah except in the state of purification.

أنه معلول والآخر أنه معارض أما كونه معلولا فقال ابن دقيق العيد في الإمام سعيد بن أبي عروبة قد اختلط بآخره فيراعى فيه سماع من سمع منه قبل الاختلاط قال ابن عدي قال أحمد بن حنبل يزيد بن زريع سمع منه قديما قال وقد رواه النسائي من حديث شعبة عن قتادة به وليس فيه إنه لم يمنعني إلى آخره ورواه حماد بن سلمة عن حميد وغيره عن الحسن عن المهاجر منقطعا فصار فيه ثلاث علل
machine translationOne is that it is defective (maʿlūl), and the other is that it is contradicted (muʿāraḍ). As for its being defective, Ibn Daqīq al-ʿĪd said in al-Imām: Saʿīd b. Abī ʿArūbah became confused (ikhtalaṭa) at the end of his life, so one must take into account who heard from him before the confusion. Ibn ʿAdī said: Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal said: Yazīd b. Zurayʿ heard from him early. He said: al-Nasāʾī narrated it from the hadith of Shuʿbah, from Qatādah, with it, and it does not contain "Indeed, nothing prevented me..." to the end. And Ḥammād b. Salamah narrated it from Ḥumayd and others, from al-Ḥasan, from al-Muhājir, as a broken chain (munqaṭiʿ). So it has three defects.

يرويه الحسن البصري واختلف عنه فرواه قتادة عن الحسن عن حضين بن المنذر أبي ساسان عن المهاجر حدث به سعيد وهشام وخالفه حميد الطويل ويونس بن عبيد وعبد الله بن المختار وأشعث بن عبد الملك وجرير بن حازم وأبو سهل كثير بن زياد والحسن بن واصل وهو الحسن بن دينار فرووه عن الحسن عن المهاجر فلم يذكروا بينهما أحدا ورواه عباد بن ميسرة عن الحسن قال حدثني رجل من قريش لم يسمه أنه رأى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال فسلم عليه فما رد عليه حتى مس ماء ورواه أبو الأشعث عن الحسن مرسلا عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حديث قتادة أصحها
machine translationAl-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī narrates it, and there is disagreement about it from him. Qatādah narrated it from al-Ḥasan, from Ḥuḍayn b. al-Mundhir Abū Sāsān, from al-Muhājir; Saʿīd and Hishām narrated it thus. Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl, Yūnus b. ʿUbayd, ʿAbdullāh b. al-Mukhtār, Ashʿath b. ʿAbd al-Malik, Jarīr b. Ḥāzim, Abū Sahl Kathīr b. Ziyād and al-Ḥasan b. Wāṣil, who is al-Ḥasan b. Dīnār, differed from him, and narrated it from al-Ḥasan from al-Muhājir, without mentioning anyone between them. ʿAbbād b. Maysarah narrated it from al-Ḥasan, who said: A man from Quraysh, whom he did not name, told me that he saw the Prophet ﷺ; he said: he greeted him with salām, and he did not return it until he had touched water. Abū al-Ashʿath narrated it from al-Ḥasan as a mursal report from the Prophet ﷺ. The hadith of Qatādah is the soundest of them.
