Musnad Ahmad 14190

Translation

✧ A man from the Ansar came with two of his camels, and the sun had set. Mu'adh was praying Maghrib, so he joined the prayer. Mu'adh began reciting al-Baqarah or al-Nisa'—Muharib is the one who is unsure. When the man saw that, he prayed [alone] and left. He said: He learned that Mu'adh spoke ill of him—Hajjaj said: he speaks ill of him. He said: He mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, who said: 'Are you a cause of trial, O Mu'adh? Are you a cause of trial, O Mu'adh?'—or: 'A tempter, a tempter, a tempter?' And Hajjaj said: 'A tempter, a tempter, a tempter?'—'Why did you not recite: Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, and the sun and its brightness, so that the elderly, the needy—and the weak—could pray behind you?'

  سئل عن حديث جابر بن عبد الله عن معاذ أنه كان يصلي مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ثم ينصرف فيصلي بقومه تلك الصلاة فقال يرويه عمرو بن دينار واختلف عنه فرواه الحسن بن أبي جعفر عن أيوب عن عمرو عن جابر عن معاذ وتابعه محمد بن يزيد الواسطي فرواه عن شعبة عن عمرو عن جابر عن معاذ وخالفهما أصحاب شعبة وصحاب أيوب فرووه عنهما عن عمرو عن جابر أن معاذا وكذلك رواه منصور بن زاذان وورقاء ومحمد بن مسلم وصحيحه أنه من مسند جابر

  machine translationHe was asked about the ḥadīth of Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh from Muʿādh, that he used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and then leave and lead his people in that same prayer. He said: ʿAmr b. Dīnār narrates it, and there is disagreement about it from him. Al-Ḥasan b. Abī Jaʿfar narrated it from Ayyūb from ʿAmr from Jābir from Muʿādh, and Muḥammad b. Yazīd al-Wāsiṭī followed him, narrating it from Shuʿbah from ʿAmr from Jābir from Muʿādh. But the students of Shuʿbah and the students of Ayyūb contradicted them both, narrating it from them from ʿAmr from Jābir that Muʿādh [did so]. Likewise Manṣūr b. Zādhān, Warqāʾ and Muḥammad b. Muslim narrated it. The sound (ṣaḥīḥ) version is that it belongs to the musnad of Jābir. Report a problem
