حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ
وَالَّذِي ذَهَبَ بِنَفْسِهِ ﷺ مَا مَاتَ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرُ صَلاَتِهِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الأَعْمَالِ إِلَيْهِ الْعَمَلَ الصَّالِحَ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ الْعَبْدُ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسِيرًا

in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 1282 - Dāraquṭnī
يرويه أبو إسحاق السبيعي واختلف عنه فرواه الثوري وزياد بن حبيب وأبو الأحوص وعمرو بن أبي قيس وإبراهيم بن طهمان وأبو بكر بن عياش وورقاء عن أبي إسحاق عن أبي سلمة عن أم سلمة وخالفهم المغيرة بن مسلم رواه عن أبي إسحاق عن الشعبي عن أم سلمة وهو وهم منه وقال يونس بن أبي إسحاق عن أبي إسحاق عن الأسود عن عائشة وليس ذلك بمحفوظ
machine translationAbū Isḥāq al-Sabīʿī narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Thawrī, Ziyād b. Ḥabīb, Abū al-Aḥwaṣ, ʿAmr b. Abī Qays, Ibrāhīm b. Ṭahmān, Abū Bakr b. ʿAyyāsh and Warqāʾ narrated it from Abū Isḥāq, from Abū Salamah, from Umm Salamah. Al-Mughīrah b. Muslim contradicted them: he narrated it from Abū Isḥāq, from al-Shaʿbī, from Umm Salamah, and that is an error on his part. Yūnus b. Abī Isḥāq said, from Abū Isḥāq, from al-Aswad, from ʿĀʾishah, and that is not preserved (maḥfūẓ).
