أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ قَالَ
أَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَمُرَّ بِجَنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ بِأُخْرَى فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ بِالثَّالِثِ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ فَقُلْتُ وَمَا وَجَبَتْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ قُلْتُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ شَهِدَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ قَالُوا خَيْرًا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ قُلْنَا أَوْ ثَلاَثَةٌ قَالَ أَوْ ثَلاَثَةٌ قُلْنَا أَوِ اثْنَانِ قَالَ أَوِ اثْنَانِ

"I came to Al-Madinah and sat with 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. A funeral passed by and the deceased was praised, and 'Umar said: 'It is granted.' Then another passed by and the deceased was praised, and 'Umar Said: 'It is granted.' Then a third passed by, and the deceased was criticized, and 'Umar said: 'It is granted.' I said: What is granted, O commander of the believers?' He said: 'I said what the Messenger of Allah said: Any Muslim for whom four people bear witness and say good things, Allah will admit him to Paradise.' We said: 'Or three?' He said: 'Or three.' We said: 'Or two?' He said: 'Or two."'

رواه عبد الله بن بريدة واختلف عنه فرواه داود بن أبي الفرات وهو ثقة عن ابن بريدة واختلف عن داود فقال يعقوب الحضرمي عنه عن ابن بريدة عن يحيى بن يعمر عن أبي الأسود ووهم في ذكر يحيى بن يعمر في إسناده لكثرة من خالفه من الثقات الحفاظ عن داود منهم عفان بن مسلم وعبد الصمد بن عبد الوارث وزيد بن الحباب ويونس بن محمد المؤدب وأبو عبد الرحمن المقري وأبو الوليد الطيالسي وشيبان بن فروخ وغيرهم فإنهم رووه عن داود عن ابن بريدة عن أبي الأسود لم يذكروا بينهما أحدا وكذلك رواه سعيد بن رزين عن عبد الله بن بريدة عن أبي الأسود كرواية الجماعة عن داود ورواه عمر بن الوليد الشني عن عبد الله بن بريدة مرسلا عن عمر لم يذكر بينهما أحدا والمحفوظ من ذلك ما رواه عفان ومن تابعه عن داود بن أبي الفرات
machine translationʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah narrated it, and there is disagreement about him. Dāwūd b. Abī al-Furāt, who is trustworthy (thiqah), narrated it from Ibn Buraydah, and there is disagreement about Dāwūd as well. Yaʿqūb al-Ḥaḍramī said, from him, from Ibn Buraydah, from Yaḥyā b. Yaʿmar, from Abū al-Aswad. He erred in mentioning Yaḥyā b. Yaʿmar in its chain, because of the many trustworthy memorizers (ḥuffāẓ) who contradicted him from Dāwūd, among them ʿAffān b. Muslim, ʿAbd al-Ṣamad b. ʿAbd al-Wārith, Zayd b. al-Ḥubāb, Yūnus b. Muḥammad al-Muʾaddib, Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Muqriʾ, Abū al-Walīd al-Ṭayālisī, Shaybān b. Farrūkh and others. They narrated it from Dāwūd, from Ibn Buraydah, from Abū al-Aswad, without mentioning anyone between the two. Likewise Saʿīd b. Razīn narrated it from ʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah, from Abū al-Aswad, like the narration of the group from Dāwūd. ʿUmar b. al-Walīd al-Shannī narrated it from ʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah as a mursal report from ʿUmar, without mentioning anyone between them. The preserved (maḥfūẓ) version of this is what ʿAffān and those who followed him narrated from Dāwūd b. Abī al-Furāt.
