عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ تَرَكَ مَوْضِعَ شَعَرَةٍ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ لَمْ يَغْسِلْهَا فُعِلَ بِهِ كَذَا وَكَذَا مِنَ النَّارِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَمِنْ ثَمَّ عَادَيْتُ شَعَرِي وَكَانَ يَجُزُّهُ

إسناده صحيح لكن قيل إن الصواب وقفه على علي
machine translationIts chain is sound (ṣaḥīḥ), but it has been said that the correct position is that it is a statement stopped at ʿAlī (mawqūf).

يرويه عطاء بن السائب عن زاذان عن علي حدث به عنه حماد ابن سلمة وشعبة وحفص بن عمر ورواه عبد الله بن رشيد عن حفص بن غياث عن الأعمش وليث عن زاذان عن علي وروى عن حماد بن زيد عن عطاء عن زاذان عن علي موقوفا وكذلك قال الأسود بن عامر عن حماد بن سلمة ورفعه عفان عن حماد بن سلمة وشعبة عن عطاء وعطاء تغير حفظه والمحفوظ عن عفان عن حماد قال سمعته يذكر عن عطاء بن السائب فصحفه الراوي فقال شعبة
machine translationʿAṭāʾ b. al-Sāʾib narrates it from Zādhān from ʿAlī. Ḥammād b. Salamah, Shuʿbah and Ḥafṣ b. ʿUmar narrated it from him. ʿAbdullāh b. Rashīd narrated it from Ḥafṣ b. Ghiyāth from al-Aʿmash and Layth from Zādhān from ʿAlī. It is also narrated from Ḥammād b. Zayd from ʿAṭāʾ from Zādhān from ʿAlī as a statement stopped at him (mawqūf). Likewise al-Aswad b. ʿĀmir said from Ḥammād b. Salamah. ʿAffān raised it to the Prophet (marfūʿ) from Ḥammād b. Salamah and Shuʿbah from ʿAṭāʾ. But ʿAṭāʾ's memory had changed, and what is preserved (maḥfūẓ) from ʿAffān is from Ḥammād, who said: "I heard him mention from ʿAṭāʾ b. al-Sāʾib." The narrator then misread it and said "Shuʿbah".

من رواية حماد بن سلمة عن عطاء وحماد إنما سمع منه بعد اختلاطه وإنما يقبل من حديث عطاء ما كان قبل أن يختلط
machine translationIt is from the narration of Ḥammād b. Salamah from ʿAṭāʾ, and Ḥammād only heard from him after his confusion (ikhtilāṭ). Only what ʿAṭāʾ narrated before he became confused is accepted.
