حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْأَحْمَرِ النَّاقِدُ، قَالَ: نَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُؤْمِنِ الْمُقْرِئُ، قَالَ: نَا قَزَعَةُ بْنُ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ، عَنْ شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِذَا حَضَرْتُمْ مَوْتَاكُمْ فَأَغْمِضُوا الْبَصَرَ، فَإِنَّ الْبَصَرَ يَتْبَعُ الرُّوحَ، وَقُولُوا خَيْرًا، فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تُؤَمِّنُ عَلَى مَا قَالَ أَهْلُ الْمَيِّتِ.

وهذا الحديث لا أعلمه رواه عن حميد غير قزعة وحميد بن قيس لا بأس بحديثه وإنما يؤتى مما يقع في حديثه من الإنكار من جهة من يروي عنه
machine translationI do not know of anyone who narrated this hadith from Ḥumayd other than Qazaʿah. Ḥumayd b. Qays is not problematic (lā baʾs bihi) in his hadith; rather, the fault comes only from the objectionable material (inkār) that occurs in his hadith through those who narrate from him.
