Sunan an-Nasa'i 400

Translation

"None of you should urinate into standing water which does not flow and then perform Ghusl with it." (One of the narrators) Sufyan said: "They said to Hisham - meaning Ibn Hassan - 'Ayyub only attributed this Hadith to Abu Hurairah?' So he said: 'If Ayyub is not able to raise up a narration then he does not raise it.'" [1] [1] That is, he narrated it from Abu Hurairah, rather than from him from the Prophet ﷺ while others narrated it in Marfu' form or "raised" to the Prophet ﷺ And perhaps by: "If he is able to not raise it" he means: "If he is not able to raise it." And Allah knows best.

Notes

• قَالَ سُفْيَانُ قَالُوا لِهِشَامٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَسَّانَ أَنَّ أَيُّوبَ إِنَّمَا يَنْتَهِي بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ إِلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَيُّوبَ لَوِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ لاَ يَرْفَعَ حَدِيثًا لَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ
