حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ:
سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ عِنْدَ اللهِ أَكْبَرُ ؟ قَالَ: أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَيُّ ؟ قَالَ: ثُمَّ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ، قَالَ: فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَصْدِيقَهَا: وَالَّذِينَ لا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلا بِالْحَقِّ وَلا يَزْنُونَ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked: 'Which sin is greatest in the sight of Allah?' He said: 'That you set up a rival to Allah while He created you.' He said: 'Then which?' He said: 'Then that you commit adultery with your neighbor's wife.' He said: 'Then Allah sent down its confirmation: And those who do not call upon another god with Allah, nor kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except by right, nor commit adultery.'

machine translationHe was asked about the hadith of ʿAmr b. Shuraḥbīl, from ʿAbdullāh, who said: A man said, "O Messenger of Allah, which sin is greatest?" – the hadith. He said: Manṣūr narrates it from Abū Wāʾil, from Abū Maysarah, from ʿAbdullāh. And al-Aʿmash narrated it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Thawrī, Maʿmar, Jarīr and ʿAbdullāh b. Numayr narrated it from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAmr b. Shuraḥbīl, from ʿAbdullāh. But Abū Shihāb al-Ḥannāṭ, Abū Muʿāwiyah al-Ḍarīr and Shaybān b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān contradicted them, and narrated it from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbdullāh. Likewise Wāṣil al-Aḥdab narrated it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Thawrī, Shuʿbah and Mahdī b. Maymūn narrated it from Wāṣil, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbdullāh. But ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī narrated it from al-Thawrī, from Wāṣil, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAmr b. Shuraḥbīl, from ʿAbdullāh, and he erred (wahima) regarding al-Thawrī. Al-Ḥasan b. ʿUbaydillāh al-Nakhaʿī narrated it from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbdullāh. The correct (ṣaḥīḥ) one is the hadith of ʿAmr b. Shuraḥbīl.
