- my father
- Thumāmah b. Shurāḥīl
- Suma b. Qays
- Shumayr
- Abyaḍ b. Ḥammāl
that Abyad bin Hammal visited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who asked him to set aside a reserve of salt(a mine). So he reserved it for him. As he was turning away, a man in the gathering said: "Do you know what you reserved for him ? You merely reserved stagnant water for him." He (Shumair) said: "So he left him." He (Shumair) said: "So he asked him (the Prophet ﷺ) about making a private pasture of Arak (a type of tree)." He said: "As long as it is not harmed by the hooves of the camels." So I (At-Tirmidhi) recited that before Qutaibah and he said: "Yes". (Another chain) with similar meaning.
Notes
فَأَقَرَّ بِهِ قُتَيْبَةُ وَقَالَ نَعَمْ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ قَيْسٍ الْمَأْرِبِيُّ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ الْمَأْرِبُ نَاحِيَةٌ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ وَائِلٍ وَأَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبْيَضَ بْنِ حَمَّالٍ حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَغَيْرِهِمْ فِي الْقَطَائِعِ يَرَوْنَ جَائِزًا أَنْ يُقْطِعَ الإِمَامُ لِمَنْ رَأَى ذَلِكَ
machine translationQutaybah acknowledged it and said: Yes. Ibn Abī ʿUmar narrated to us, Muḥammad b. Yaḥyā b. Qays al-Māribī narrated to us with this chain of transmission, similar to it. Al-Mārib is a region of Yemen. He said: On this topic there are narrations from Wāʾil and Asmāʾ bint Abī Bakr. Abū ʿĪsā said: The hadith of Abyaḍ b. Ḥammāl is a strange (gharīb) hadith, and the practice according to this among the people of knowledge from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others concerns land grants (qaṭāʾiʿ); they consider it permissible for the Imam to grant land to whomever he sees fit.
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبْيَضَ بْنِ حَمَّالٍ حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَغَيْرِهِمْ فِي الْقَطَائِعِ يَرَوْنَ جَائِزًا أَنْ يُقْطِعَ الإِمَامُ لِمَنْ رَأَى ذَلِكَ.
