حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ الْفَضْلِ
أَنَّهُ كَانَ رِدْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ غَدَاةَ النَّحْرِ فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللَّهِ فِي الْحَجِّ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكِ دَيْنٌ قَضَيْتِيهِ

أصح شيء في هذا الباب ما رواه ابن عباس عن الفضل بن عباس عن النبي عليه السلام قال محمد ويحتمل أن يكون ابن عباس سمعه من الفضل وغيره عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ثم أرسله فلم يذكر من سمعه منه
machine translationThe most authentic report on this topic is what Ibn ʿAbbās narrated from al-Faḍl b. ʿAbbās, from the Prophet, peace be upon him. Muḥammad said: It is possible that Ibn ʿAbbās heard it from al-Faḍl and others, from the Prophet ﷺ, and then transmitted it as a mursal report, without mentioning the one from whom he heard it.
