حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ [بْنُ] الْمُكْتِبِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ:
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: صَلَاةُ الْقَائِمِ أَفْضَلُ، وَصَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ

- Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr
هو حديث لم يروه إلا حسين المعلم وهو حسين بن ذكوان عن عبد الله بن بريدة عن عمران بن حصين وقد اختلف أيضا على حسين المعلم في إسناده ولفظه اختلافا يوجب التوقف عنه وإن صح حديث حسين عن ابن بريدة عن عمران بن حصين هذا فلا أدري ما وجهه
machine translationThis is a hadith that only Ḥusayn al-Muʿallim narrated, who is Ḥusayn b. Dhakwān, from ʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah, from ʿImrān b. Ḥuṣayn. There is also disagreement about Ḥusayn al-Muʿallim concerning its chain and its wording, a disagreement that requires withholding judgement on it. And if the hadith of Ḥusayn from Ibn Buraydah from ʿImrān b. Ḥuṣayn is authentic, then I do not know what its explanation is.
