• Dāraquṭnī

  يرويه أبو إسحاق واختلف عنه فرواه إدريس الأودي وموسى بن عقبة ورفعا الخطبة كلها إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ورواه شعبة وإسرائيل وشريك من كلام عبد الله إلا قوله ألا أنبئكم ما العضة هو النميمة فإنهم رفعوه إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وكذلك قوله إن الرجل ليصدق حتى يكتب صديقا وقول شعبة ومن تابعه أولى بالصواب

  machine translationAbū Isḥāq narrates it, and there is disagreement about it from him. Idrīs al-Awdī and Mūsā b. ʿUqbah narrated it and traced the whole sermon back to the Prophet ﷺ. Shuʿbah, Isrāʾīl and Sharīk narrated it as the words of ʿAbdullāh, except for his saying: "Shall I not inform you what the ʿiḍah is? It is slander (namīmah)", which they traced back to the Prophet ﷺ, and likewise his saying: "A man keeps speaking the truth until he is recorded as truthful (ṣiddīq)." The position of Shuʿbah and those who followed him is more likely to be correct. Report a problem
