حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ

لاَ تَسْتَنْجُوا بِالرَّوْثِ وَلاَ بِالْعِظَامِ فَإِنَّهُ زَادُ إِخْوَانِكُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ

Notes

  • وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَسَلْمَانَ وَجَابِرٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ الْجِنِّ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ فَقَالَ الشَّعْبِيُّ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تَسْتَنْجُوا بِالرَّوْثِ وَلاَ بِالْعِظَامِ فَإِنَّهُ زَادُ إِخْوَانِكُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَكَأَنَّ رِوَايَةَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ أَصَحُّ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ

    machine translationOn this topic there are narrations from Abū Hurayrah, Salmān, Jābir and Ibn ʿUmar. Abū ʿĪsā said: This hadith was narrated by Ismāʿīl b. Ibrāhīm and others from Dāwūd b. Abī Hind, from al-Shaʿbī, from ʿAlqamah, from ʿAbdullāh, that he was with the Prophet ﷺ on the night of the jinn (the hadith in full). Then al-Shaʿbī said: The Prophet ﷺ said: "Do not clean yourselves with dung or with bones, for it is the provision of your brothers among the jinn." The narration of Ismāʿīl seems more sound (aṣaḥḥ) than the narration of Ḥafṣ b. Ghiyāth. The practice according to this hadith is among the people of knowledge. On this topic there are narrations from Jābir and Ibn ʿUmar, may God be pleased with them.

  • قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيْلَةَ الْجِنِّ - الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ - فَقَالَ الشَّعْبِيُّ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ تَسْتَنْجُوا بِالرَّوْثِ وَلاَ بِالْعِظَامِ فَإِنَّهُ زَادُ إِخْوَانِكُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ ". وَكَأَنَّ رِوَايَةَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ أَصَحُّ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ رضى الله عنهما.

What scholars said about it

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

  • al-Tirmidhi

    كأن رواية إسماعيل أصح من رواية حفص بن غياث

    machine translationThe narration of Ismāʿīl seems more sound (aṣaḥḥ) than the narration of Ḥafṣ b. Ghiyāth.

    in جامع الترمذي, p. 20
  • Dāraquṭnī

    يرويه داود بن أبي هند عن الشعبي عن علقمة عن عبد الله رواه عنه جماعة من الكوفيين والبصريين فأما البصريون فجعلوا قوله وسألوه الزاد إلى آخر الحديث من قول الشعبي مرسلا وأما يحيى بن أبي زائدة وغيره من الكوفيين فأدرجوه في حديث ابن مسعود عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والصحيح قول من فصله فإنه من كلام الشعبي مرسلا

    machine translationDāwūd b. Abī Hind narrates it from al-Shaʿbī, from ʿAlqamah, from ʿAbdullāh; a group of Kufans and Basrans narrated it from him. The Basrans made the words "and they asked him for provision" to the end of the hadith the statement of al-Shaʿbī, as a mursal report. As for Yaḥyā b. Abī Zāʾidah and others of the Kufans, they inserted it (idrāj) into the hadith of Ibn Masʿūd from the Prophet ﷺ. The correct view is that of those who separated it, for it is the speech of al-Shaʿbī as a mursal report.

    in جامع الترمذي, p. 20
  • al-Tirmidhi

    كأن هذه الرواية أصح يعني فيكون مرسلا

    machine translationThis narration seems to be more sound (aṣaḥḥ), meaning that it would then be mursal.
