أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
«إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ لَيَأْرِزُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةَ كَمَا تَأْرِزُ الْحَيَّةُ إِلَى جُحْرِهَا»

يرويه خبيب بن عبد الرحمن واختلف عنه فقال عبيد الله عن خبيب عن حفص بن عاصم عن أبي هريرة وحده عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وقيل عن عبد الله العمري عن خبيب عن حفص بن عاصم عن أبي هريرة وأبي سعيد والصحيح الأول
machine translationKhubayb b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. ʿUbayd Allāh said, from Khubayb, from Ḥafṣ b. ʿĀṣim, from Abū Hurayrah alone, from the Prophet ﷺ. And it was said, from ʿAbd Allāh al-ʿUmarī, from Khubayb, from Ḥafṣ b. ʿĀṣim, from Abū Hurayrah and Abū Saʿīd. And the correct (ṣaḥīḥ) one is the first.
