حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي نُوحُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ وَكَانَ قَارِئًا لِلْقُرْآنِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي عُرْوَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ دَاوُدُ قَدْ وَلَّدَتْهُ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَنْ لَيْلَى بِنْتِ قَانِفٍ الثَّقَفِيَّةِ قَالَتْ

كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ غَسَّلَ أُمَّ كُلْثُومٍ بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عِنْدَ وَفَاتِهَا فَكَانَ أَوَّلُ مَا أَعْطَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحِقَاءَ ثُمَّ الدِّرْعَ ثُمَّ الْخِمَارَ ثُمَّ الْمِلْحَفَةَ ثُمَّ أُدْرِجَتْ بَعْدُ فِي الثَّوْبِ الآخِرِ قَالَتْ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ الْبَابِ مَعَهُ كَفَنُهَا يُنَاوِلُنَاهَا ثَوْبًا ثَوْبًا

I was one of those who washed Umm Kulthum, daughter of the Prophet ﷺ, when she died. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ first gave us lower garment, then shirt, then head-wear, then cloak (which covers the whole body), and then she was shrouded in another garment. She said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting at the door, and he had shroud with him. He gave us the garments one by one.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • العظيم آبادي محمد بن علي

    في إسناده نوح بن حكيم قال ابن القطان مجهول ووثقه ابن حبان وقال ابن إسحاق كان قارئا للقرآن

    machine translationIn its chain is Nūḥ b. Ḥakīm. Ibn al-Qaṭṭān said he is unknown (majhūl), while Ibn Ḥibbān declared him trustworthy (wathaqahu), and Ibn Isḥāq said: He was a reciter of the Qur'an.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    وما أعله به ابن القطان ليس بعلة

    machine translationWhat Ibn al-Qaṭṭān faulted it for is not a valid defect (ʿillah).

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Ibn al-Qaṭṭān

  • محمد أشرف بن أمير الصديقي

    الحديث سنده حسن صالح للاحتجاج

    machine translationThe chain of the hadith is good (ḥasan), suitable to be used as evidence.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • ʿAbd al-ʿAẓīm al-Mudhirī

    فيه محمد بن إسحاق وفيه من ليس بمشهور والصحيح أن هذه القصة في زينب لأن أم كلثوم توفيت ورسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم غائب ببدر

    machine translationIn it is Muḥammad b. Isḥāq, and in it is someone who is not well known. The correct view is that this story concerns Zaynab, because Umm Kulthūm died while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was absent at Badr.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Ibn ʿAsākir

    هذا حديث غريب لا نعرفه إلا من حديث محمد بن إسحاق

    machine translationThis is an unfamiliar (gharīb) hadith; we know it only from the narration of Muḥammad b. Isḥāq.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Ibn al-Qaṭṭān

    أعله بنوح وأنه مجهول

    machine translationHe faulted it because of Nūḥ, saying that he is unknown (majhūl).

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • ʿAbd al-ʿAẓīm al-Mudhirī

    فيه محمد بن إسحاق وفيه من ليس بمشهور

    machine translationIn it is Muḥammad b. Isḥāq, and in it is someone who is not well known.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Abū Daʾūd

    لم يضعفه أبو داود فهو صالح للاحتجاج به عنده

    machine translationAbū Dāwūd did not declare it weak, so in his view it is suitable to be used as evidence.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Ibn al-Qaṭṭān

    فإنه أعله بأن قال ابن إسحاق لا يقال لما يرويه حسن إذا لم يكن لما يرويه علة غيره فأما هذا فإن نوح بن حكيم رجل مجهول الحال ولم تثبت عدالته بكونه قارئا للقرآن فما كل قارئ مرضي وأما هذا الرجل الثقفي الذي يقال له داود فنحدس فيه حدس لا يقطع النزاع ولا يدخله في باب من يقبل حديثه

    machine translationHe faulted it by saying: One does not call what Ibn Isḥāq narrates good (ḥasan) when it has no other defect besides him. As for this one, Nūḥ b. Ḥakīm is a man of unknown condition (majhūl al-ḥāl), and his uprightness is not established merely by his being a reciter of the Qur'an, for not every reciter is approved. As for this Thaqafī man who is called Dāwūd, we only guess about him, a guess that does not settle the dispute and does not place him among those whose hadith is accepted.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • Abū Zakariyyā Yaḥyá b. Sharaf al-Nawawī

    هذا الحديث إسناده حسن إلا رجلا واحدا لا أتحقق حاله وقد سكت عنه أبو داود فلم يضعفه

    machine translationThe chain of this hadith is good (ḥasan) except for one man whose condition I cannot verify, and Abū Dāwūd was silent about it and did not declare it weak.

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 3155
  • ʿAbd al-ʿAẓīm al-Mudhirī

    هذا حديث غريب ثم قال فيه محمد بن إسحاق وفيه مقال وأكثر ما عابوا عليه التدليس وقد صرح في هذا الحديث بالتحديث فيحتج به ويكون حسنا

    machine translationThis is an unfamiliar (gharīb) hadith. Then he said: In it is Muḥammad b. Isḥāq, and there is some criticism of him, and what they most faulted him for was concealment (tadlīs). In this hadith he explicitly stated that he heard it directly (taḥdīth), so it can be used as evidence and it is good (ḥasan).
