أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ
كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْجَنَائِزِ «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ»

- Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
وقال ابن أبي حاتم سألت أبي عن حديث يحيى بن أبي كثير عن أبي سلمة عن أبي هريرة فقال الحفاظ لا يذكرون أبا هريرة إنما يقولون أبو سلمة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مرسلا ولا يوصله بذكر أبي هريرة إلا غير متقن والصحيح أنه مرسل
machine translationIbn Abī Ḥātim said: I asked my father about the hadith of Yaḥyā b. Abī Kathīr, from Abū Salamah, from Abū Hurayrah. He said: The memorizers (ḥuffāẓ) do not mention Abū Hurayrah; they only say "Abū Salamah, from the Prophet ﷺ" as a mursal report. None connects it by mentioning Abū Hurayrah except one who is not precise (ghayr mutqin), and the sound view is that it is mursal.
