Musnad Ahmad 20060

Translation

✧ A man had intercourse with his wife's slave girl, and that was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: If she yielded to him, she belongs to him and he owes a slave girl like her for his wife; if he forced her, she is free and he owes a slave girl like her for his wife.

  قلت لأبي هما صحيحين قال نعم قلت حبيب عن النعمان متصل قال نعم قلت الحسن عن سلمة متصل قالا لا حدثنا القاسم بن سلام عن أبيه عن الحسن قال حدثني قبيصة بن حريث عن سلمة بن محبق عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فأدخلا بينهما قبيصة بن حريث فاتصل الإسناد قلت الحسن سمع من سلمة وروى محمد بن مسلم الطائفي عن عمرو بن دينار عن الحسن سمعت سلمة بن المحبق قال هذا عندي غلط غير محفوظ قلت فإن قتادة يختلف عليه في هذا يروي أبان عن قتادة قال حدثنا خالد بن عرفطة عن حبيب بن سالم عن النعمان بن بشير وروى همام عن قتادة عن حبيب بن يساف عن حبيب بن سالم عن النعمان فأي هذا أشبه قال حديث همام أشبه وحبيب بن يساف مجهول لا أعلم أحدا روى عنه غير قتادة هذا الحديث الواحد وكذلك خالد بن عرفطة مجهول لا نعرف أحدا يقال له خالد بن عرفطة إلا واحد الذي له صحبة

  machine translationI said to my father: "Are the two of them sound (ṣaḥīḥ)?" He said: "Yes." I said: "Is Ḥabīb's narration from al-Nuʿmān connected?" He said: "Yes." I said: "Is al-Ḥasan's narration from Salamah connected?" They both said: "No. Al-Qāsim b. Sallām narrated to us from his father, from al-Ḥasan, who said: Qabīṣah b. Ḥurayth narrated to me, from Salamah b. al-Muḥabbiq, from the Prophet ﷺ." So they put Qabīṣah b. Ḥurayth between them, and the chain became connected. I said: "Al-Ḥasan heard from Salamah, and Muḥammad b. Muslim al-Ṭāʾifī narrated from ʿAmr b. Dīnār, from al-Ḥasan: I heard Salamah b. al-Muḥabbiq." He said: "This, in my view, is a mistake and is not preserved (ghayr maḥfūẓ)." I said: "Qatādah is subject to disagreement in this. Abān narrates from Qatādah, who said: Khālid b. ʿUrfuṭah narrated to us, from Ḥabīb b. Sālim, from al-Nuʿmān b. Bashīr. And Hammām narrated from Qatādah, from Ḥabīb b. Yasāf, from Ḥabīb b. Sālim, from al-Nuʿmān. Which of these is more likely?" He said: "The ḥadīth of Hammām is more likely. Ḥabīb b. Yasāf is unknown (majhūl); I do not know anyone who narrated from him other than Qatādah, this one ḥadīth. Likewise Khālid b. ʿUrfuṭah is unknown (majhūl); we do not know anyone called Khālid b. ʿUrfuṭah except the one who was a Companion." Report a problem
