- Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
هذا حديث مشهور رواه جماعة عن أبي حيان عن أبي زرعة عن أبي هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه ذكر الغلول فقال لا ألفين أحدكم يجيء يوم القيامة على عنقه فرس فاختصر مروان هذا الحديث لما قال يحملها على رقبته أي جعل الفرس أنثى حين قال يحملها ولم يقل يحمله
machine translationThis is a well-known (mashhūr) hadith, narrated by a group from Abū Ḥayyān, from Abū Zurʿah, from Abū Hurayrah, from the Prophet ﷺ, that he mentioned the stealing of war booty (ghulūl) and said: "Let me not find any of you coming on the Day of Resurrection with a horse on his neck." Marwān abridged this hadith when he said "he carries it on his neck", that is, he made the horse feminine when he said "yaḥmilhā" (carries her) and did not say "yaḥmiluhu" (carries him).
