لأَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ جَوْفُ أَحَدِكُمْ قَيْحًا خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ شِعْرًا

يرويه شعبة عن قتادة عن يونس بن جبير عن محمد بن سعد عن أبيه سعد ورواه حماد بن سلمة عن قتادة عن عمر بن سعد عن سعد ووهم فيه والقول قول شعبة ومن تابعه عن قتادة وقال محمد بن خالد الوهبي عن زياد الجصاص عن قتادة عن محمد بن سعد عن سعد عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وقيل عن زياد الجصاص عن معاوية بن قرة عن محمد بن سعد عن سعد عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والصحيح حديث شعبة
machine translationShuʿbah narrates it from Qatādah, from Yūnus b. Jubayr, from Muḥammad b. Saʿd, from his father Saʿd. Ḥammād b. Salamah narrated it from Qatādah, from ʿUmar b. Saʿd, from Saʿd, and he was mistaken in it; the correct view is the view of Shuʿbah and those who followed him from Qatādah. Muḥammad b. Khālid al-Wahbī said, from Ziyād al-Jaṣṣāṣ, from Qatādah, from Muḥammad b. Saʿd, from Saʿd, from the Prophet ﷺ. It was also said, from Ziyād al-Jaṣṣāṣ, from Muʿāwiyah b. Qurrah, from Muḥammad b. Saʿd, from Saʿd, from the Prophet ﷺ. The sound (ṣaḥīḥ) version is the hadith of Shuʿbah.
