حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ أَبِي النَّجُودِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ
جَاءَ ابْنُ النَّوَّاحَةِ وَابْنُ أُثَالٍ رَسُولًا مُسَيْلِمَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: أَتَشْهَدَانِ أَنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ؟ قَالَا: نَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُسَيْلِمَةَ رَسُولُ اللهِ! فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: آمَنْتُ بِاللهِ وَرُسُلِهِ، لَوْ كُنْتُ قَاتِلًا رَسُولًا لَقَتَلْتُكُمَا قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: قَالَ: فَمَضَتِ السُّنَّةُ أَنَّ الرُّسُلَ لَا تُقْتَلُ

✧ Ibn al-Nawwāḥah and Ibn Uthāl came as messengers of Musaylimah to the Prophet ﷺ. He said to them, “Do you bear witness that I am the Messenger of Allah?” They said, “We bear witness that Musaylimah is the Messenger of Allah.” The Prophet ﷺ said, “I believe in Allah and His messengers. Were I to kill a messenger, I would kill you two.” ‘Abd Allah said: He said: The sunnah has passed that messengers are not killed.

يرويه عاصم بن أبي النجود واختلف عنه فرواه الثوري والمسعودي وسلام أبو المنذر عن عاصم عن أبي وائل عن عبد الله وخالفهم أبو بكر بن عياش فرواه عن عاصم عن أبي وائل عن أبي معير السعدي عن ابن مسعود وحدث بهذا الخبر هيثم الدوري عن شيخ له عن أبي عاصم عن الثوري عن الأعمش عن أبي وائل وذلك وهم والصواب عن الثوري عن عاصم
machine translationʿĀṣim b. Abī al-Najūd narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Thawrī, al-Masʿūdī and Sallām Abū al-Mundhir narrated it from ʿĀṣim, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbdullāh. Abū Bakr b. ʿAyyāsh differed from them, and narrated it from ʿĀṣim, from Abū Wāʾil, from Abū Muʿayr al-Saʿdī, from Ibn Masʿūd. Haytham al-Dūrī related this report from a shaykh of his, from Abū ʿĀṣim, from al-Thawrī, from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Wāʾil, and that is an error (wahm); the correct version is from al-Thawrī, from ʿĀṣim.
