حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ وَسَالِمٍ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ وَغَيْرُهُ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ
لاَ أُلْفِيَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ مُتَّكِئًا عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ يَأْتِيهِ أَمْرٌ مِمَّا أَمَرْتُ بِهِ أَوْ نَهَيْتُ عَنْهُ فَيَقُولُ لاَ أَدْرِي مَا وَجَدْنَا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ اتَّبَعْنَاهُ

Notes
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مُرْسَلاً وَسَالِمٍ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ إِذَا رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَلَى الاِنْفِرَادِ بَيَّنَ حَدِيثَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَالِمٍ أَبِي النَّضْرِ وَإِذَا جَمَعَهُمَا رَوَى هَكَذَا وَأَبُو رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اسْمُهُ أَسْلَمُ
machine translationAbū ʿĪsā said: This is a good (ḥasan) hadith. Some of them narrated it from Sufyān, from Ibn al-Munkadir, from the Prophet ﷺ as a mursal report, and from Sālim Abū al-Naḍr, from ʿUbaydullāh b. Abī Rāfiʿ, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ. When Ibn ʿUyaynah narrated this hadith separately, he distinguished the hadith of Muḥammad b. al-Munkadir from the hadith of Sālim Abū al-Naḍr, and when he combined the two, he narrated it in this way. Abū Rāfiʿ, the freed slave of the Prophet ﷺ, his name is Aslam.
