حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَخِي مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مِلْحَانَ الْقَيْسِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نَصُومَ الْبِيضَ ثَلاَثَ عَشْرَةَ وَأَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ وَخَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ قَالَ وَقَالَ هُنَّ كَهَيْئَةِ الدَّهْرِ

What scholars said about it

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr

    وحديث همام أيضا خطأ والصواب ما قال شعبة وليس همام ممن يعارضني به شعبة وذكر خلاف هذا في موضع آخر فقال يقال إن شعبة أخطأ في اسمه إذ قال فيه منهال بن ملحان

    machine translationThe hadith of Hammām is also mistaken, and the correct version is what Shuʿbah said; Hammām is not someone whom Shuʿbah would contradict me with. He mentioned something contrary to this in another place, saying: It is said that Shuʿbah erred in his name when he said in it, "Minhāl b. Milḥān."

    in سنن أبي داود, p. 2445
  • al-Bukhari

    حديث همام أصح من حديث شعبة قال ومنهال بن ملحان لا يعرف في الصحابة والصواب قتادة بن ملحان القيسي تفرد بالرواية عنه ابنه عبد الملك وقتادة يعد في أهل البصرة

    machine translationThe hadith of Hammām is more sound (aṣaḥḥ) than the hadith of Shuʿbah. He said: Minhāl b. Milḥān is not known among the Companions, and the correct name is Qatādah b. Milḥān al-Qaysī. His son ʿAbd al-Malik was alone in narrating from him, and Qatādah is counted among the people of Basra.
