Sunan Abi Dawud 5257

Translation

what is with you? I said: Here is a snake. He said: what do you want ? I said: I shall kill it. He then pointed to a room in his house in front of his room and said: My cousin (son of my uncle) was in this room. He asked his permission to go to his wife on the occasion of the battle of Troops (Ahzab), as he was recently married. The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) gave him permission and ordered him to take his weapon with him. He came to his house and found his wife standing at the door of the house. When he pointed to her with the lance, she said; do not make haste till you see what has brought me out. He entered the house and found an ugly snake there. He pierced in the lance while it was quivering. He said: I do not know which of them died first, the man or the snake. His people then came to the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) and said: supplicate Allah to restore our companion to life for us. He said: Ask forgiveness for your Companion. Then he said: In Medina a group of Jinn have embraced Islam, so when you see one of them, pronounce a waring to it three times and if it appears to you after that, kill it after three days.

• Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī

  روى هذا الحديث مالك وعبيد الله بن عمر عن صيفي عن أبي السائب عن أبي سعيد عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ونرى أن هذا الرجل الذي روى عنه أسماء بن عبيد هو صيفي وليس للسائب بن يزيد معنى

  machine translationMālik and ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar narrated this hadith from Ṣayfī, from Abū al-Sāʾib, from Abū Saʿīd, from the Prophet ﷺ. We hold that this man from whom Asmāʾ b. ʿUbayd narrated is Ṣayfī, and that al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd has no place in it. Report a problem

• Dāraquṭnī

  حدث به عبيد الله بن عمر واختلف عنه فرواه عبدة بن سليمان عن عبيد الله بن عمر عن العلاء عن أبيه عن أبي سعيد حدث به الحسن بن سهل الحناط عن عبدة هكذا وخالفه عبد الله بن نمير فرواه عن عبيد الله بن عمر عن صيفي عن أبي سعيد الخدري وصيفي لم يسمعه من أبي سعيد ورواه ابن عيينة عن ابن عجلان فقال عن صيفي مولى أبي السائب عن أبي سعيد وهو وهم والصواب ما رواه يحيى بن سعيد القطان والليث بن سعد عن ابن عجلان عن صيفي عن أبي السائب عن أبي سعيد وكذلك رواه مالك بن أنس عن صيفي عن أبي السائب عن أبي سعيد وهو الصواب

  machine translationʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar related it, and there is disagreement about him. ʿAbdah b. Sulaymān narrated it from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar, from al-ʿAlāʾ, from his father, from Abū Saʿīd; al-Ḥasan b. Sahl al-Ḥannāṭ related it from ʿAbdah in this way. ʿAbdullāh b. Numayr differed from him and narrated it from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar, from Ṣayfī, from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī, but Ṣayfī did not hear it from Abū Saʿīd. Ibn ʿUyaynah narrated it from Ibn ʿAjlān and said: from Ṣayfī, the freed slave of Abū al-Sāʾib, from Abū Saʿīd, and that is an error (wahm). The correct version is what Yaḥyā b. Saʿīd al-Qaṭṭān and al-Layth b. Saʿd narrated from Ibn ʿAjlān, from Ṣayfī, from Abū al-Sāʾib, from Abū Saʿīd. Likewise Mālik b. Anas narrated it from Ṣayfī, from Abū al-Sāʾib, from Abū Saʿīd, and that is the correct one. Report a problem
