[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent us to the Negus, and there were eighty of us, and among us was Ja'far ibn Abi Talib. He mentioned the story of their entrance to the Negus and at the end, he said: Then Ibn Mas'ud came forward and bore witness to the Battle of Badr.  

بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ وَنَحْنُ ثَمَانُونَ رَجُلًا وَمَعَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي دُخُولِهِمْ عَلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ وَفِي آخِرِهِ قَالَ فَجَاءَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَبَادَرَ فَشَهِدَ بَدْرًا  

[Machine] He came to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , in Mecca from the migration of Abyssinia, then he emigrated to Medina. Abdullah ibn Mas'ud mentioned him, and he was one of those who witnessed the Battle of Badr with the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . This is how all the people of the battles mentioned him, without any disagreement among them.  

أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ مِنْ مُهَاجِرَةِ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ الْأُولَى ثُمَّ هَاجَرَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَذَكَرَهُمْ وَذَكَرَ فِيهِمْ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهَكَذَا ذَكَرَهُ سَائِرُ أَهْلِ الْمَغَازِي بِلَا اخْتِلَافٍ بَيْنَهُمْ فِيهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in one of the evening prayers, and we heard from Yahya ibn Abi Kathir who heard from Abu Salamah who heard from Abu Hurayrah that he said: "While I was praying the Dhuhr prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he mentioned the story of Dhul-Yadayn (the man with two hands). And we heard in the hadith of Abu Sufyan, the freed slave of Ibn Abi Ahmad, who heard from Abu Hurayrah, who said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the Dhuhr or Asr prayer and then he made taslim (salam) after two units (rak'ahs), and he mentioned it. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz narrated to us, who Abu Bakr ibn Abdullah informed, who al-Hasan ibn Sufyan informed, who Harmala ibn Yahya informed, who Ibn Wahb informed, who Ibn Yunus informed, who Ibn Shihab mentioned it. Abu Hurayrah narrated to us that he witnessed this story, and the coming of Abu Hurayrah to the Prophet ﷺ was in Khaybar. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz narrated to us, who Abu Bakr ibn Ishaq informed, who Bishr ibn Musa informed, who al-Humaydi informed, who Sufyan informed, who al-Zuhri informed, who Anbasah ibn Sa'id ibn al-'As informed, from Abu Hurayrah, that he said: "I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions in Khaybar after they had conquered it, and he mentioned the hadith."  

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِحْدَى صَلَاتِي الْعَشِيِّ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ ذِي الْيَدَيْنِ وَرُوِّينَا فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ مَوْلَى ابْنِ أَبِي أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ 3921 وَفِي حَدِيثِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَأَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ وَعُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ صَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ أَوِ الْعَصْرَ فَسَلَّمَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَذَكَرَهُ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثنا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أنبأ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ يُونُسَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ فَذَكَرَهُ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةَ وَقُدُومُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَانَ وَهُوَ بِخَيْبَرَ 3922 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أنبأ بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ ثنا الزُّهْرِيُّ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ بِخَيْبَرَ بَعْدَ مَا فَتَحُوهَا وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] I heard Abu Hurairah saying: "I arrived in Medina with the Prophet ﷺ during the Battle of Khaibar, and a man from the tribe of Ghifar was leading the people in prayer." The scholar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Indeed, he was a follower of the Prophet ﷺ, so he came to him while he was at Khaibar."  

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِخَيْبَرَ وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارَ يَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ تَبِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ بِخَيْبَرَ  

[Machine] I heard Abu Hurairah say, "I accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for three years." 3925 Abu Sa'eed al-Isfaraaini informed us, Abu Bahr al-Barbahari narrated to us, that Bishr ibn Musa said, "Al-Humaidi mentioned this issue and attributed the Hadith of Ibn Mas'ud to it. He said, 'If someone asks, what is the evidence for that? The apparent interpretation is both forgetfulness and ignorance.' We said, 'You have spoken the truth. This is the apparent interpretation, but the coming of Ibn Mas'ud from the land of Habasha (Ethiopia) was before Badr, and then he witnessed Badr after that statement. So when we found the Islam of Abu Hurairah and the Prophet ﷺ in Khaybar three years before the death of the Prophet ﷺ , and he was present during the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the saying of the Two-Handed, and we found Imran bin Husain present during the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ once again, and the saying of Al-Khirbaq, and the Islam of Imran bin Husain was after Badr, and we found Mu'awiya bin Hudayj present during the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the saying of Talhah bin 'Ubaidullah, and the Islam of Mu'awiya was before the death of the Prophet ﷺ by two months, and we found Ibn Abbas rectifying what Ibn Zubair said in that, and he mentioned that it is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and Ibn Abbas was ten years old when the Prophet ﷺ died. And we found Ibn Umar narrating that, and the permission of the Prophet ﷺ was given to Ibn Umar on the day of Al-Khandaq after Badr. So we knew that the Hadith of Ibn Mas'ud was designated specifically for it, as it was regarding both forgetfulness and intention on that day, it would have abrogated the prayers of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , because it was after him."  

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ 3925 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْإِسْفَرَايِينِيُّ أَنْبَأَ أَبُو بَحْرٍ الْبَرْبَهَارِيُّ ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ قَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ وَهُوَ يَذْكُرُ هَذِهِ الْمَسْأَلَةَ وَيَحْمِلُ حَدِيثَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ عَلَى الْعَمْدِ قَالَ فَإِنْ قَالَ قَائِلٌ فَمَا دَلَّ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَظَاهِرُهُ الْعَمْدُ وَالنِّسْيَانُ وَالْجَهَالَةُ؟ قُلْنَا صَدَقْتَ هَذَا ظَاهِرٌ وَلَكِنْ كَانَ إِتْيَانُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ قَبْلَ بَدْرٍ ثُمَّ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا بَعْدَ هَذَا الْقَوْلِ فَلَمَّا وَجَدْنَا إِسْلَامَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِخَيْبَرَ قَبْلَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ وَقَدْ حَضَرَ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَوْلَ ذِي الْيَدَيْنِ وَوَجَدْنَا عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ حَضَرَ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى وَقَوْلَ الْخِرْبَاقِ وَكَانَ إِسْلَامُ عِمْرَانَ بَعْدَ بَدْرٍ وَوَجَدْنَا مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ حُدَيْجٍ حَضَرَ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَوْلَ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ وَكَانَ إِسْلَامُ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَبْلَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِشَهْرَيْنِ وَوَجَدْنَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ يُصَوِّبُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ ؓ فِي ذَلِكَ وَيَذْكُرُ أَنَّهَا سُنَّةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ابْنَ عَشْرِ سِنِينَ حِينَ قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَوَجَدْنَا ابْنَ عُمَرَ رَوَى ذَلِكَ وَكَانَ إِجَازَةُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ بَعْدَ بَدْرٍ فَعَلِمَنَا أَنَّ حَدِيثَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ خُصَّ بِهِ الْعَمْدُ دُونَ النِّسْيَانِ وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ الْحَدِيثُ فِي النِّسْيَانِ وَالْعَمْدِ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَكَانَتْ صَلَوَاتُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ هَذِهِ نَاسِخَةً لَهُ؛ لِأَنَّهَا بَعْدَهُ  

[Machine] The Islam of Mu'awiyah ibn al-Hakam was at the end of the matter, and the Prophet ﷺ did not command him to repeat the prayer. So, whoever speaks during the prayer unintentionally or out of ignorance, his prayer is still valid. But whoever speaks deliberately, he should resume the prayer. Ash-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, pointed out that what we have mentioned about others in the book of the disagreement of hadiths and what we have narrated from others is a confirmation of his saying. Ash-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "One person said, 'Did the one you narrated from, who was killed at Badr, wash his hands?' I said, 'No, Imran calls him Al-Khirbaq and says he had short hands or long hands.' And the one who was killed at Badr and had two left hands was Imran ibn 'Amr ibn Nadlah, an ally of Banu Zuhrah from Khuzayah. This is how 'Urwah ibn az-Zubayr mentioned him."  

كَانَ إِسْلَامُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ فِي آخِرِ الْأَمْرِ فَلَمْ يَأْمُرْهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِإِعَادَةِ الصَّلَاةِ فَمَنْ تَكَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةٍ سَاهِيًا أَوْ جَاهِلًا مَضَتْ صَلَاتُهُ وَمَنْ تَكَلَّمَ مُتَعَمِّدًا اسْتَأْنَفَ الصَّلَاةَ وَقَدْ أَشَارَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ لِي أَكْثَرَ مَا حَكَيْنَاهُ عَنْ غَيْرِهِ فِي كِتَابِ اخْتِلَافِ الْأَحَادِيثِ وَفِيمَا رُوِّينَا عَنْ غَيْرِهِ تَأْكِيدٌ لِقَوْلِهِ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ قَالَ قَائِلٌ أَفَذُو الْيَدَيْنِ الَّذِي رَوَيتُمْ عَنْهُ الْمَقْتُولُ بِبَدْرٍ؟ قُلْتُ لَا عِمْرَانُ يُسَمِّيهِ الْخِرْبَاقَ وَيَقُولُ قَصِيرُ الْيَدَيْنِ أَوْ مَدِيدُ الْيَدَيْنِ وَالْمَقْتُولُ بِبَدْرٍ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ الَّذِي قُتِلَ بِبَدْرٍ هُوَ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ ابْنُ عَبْدِ عَمْرِو بْنِ نَضْلَةَ حَلِيفٌ لِبَنِي زُهْرَةَ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ هَكَذَا ذَكَرَهُ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ  

[Machine] From among those who witnessed Badr with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Dhul Shi'malayn (the one with two left hands), the son of 'Abd Amr ibn Nadlah ibn Ghabshan from the tribe of Khuzay'ah, said that two men from the Muslims were martyred on the Day of Badr from the Banu Zuhrah ibn Kilab. They were 'Umayr ibn Abi Waqqas and Dhul Shi'malayn the son of 'Abd Amr ibn Nadlah, and they had an ally from the tribe of Khuzay'ah from the Banu Ghabshan. Musa ibn 'Uqbah and Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Yasār narrated the same. Muhammad said that he had no successor. Our sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, said: As for the one with two hands who informed the Prophet ﷺ of his forgetfulness, he remained after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Our sheikh Abu 'Abdullah al-Hafiz mentioned him in this way.  

وَمِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ ابْنُ عَبْدِ عَمْرِو بْنِ نَضْلَةَ بْنِ غَبْشَانَ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ قَالَ وَاسْتُشْهِدَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ مِنْ بَنِي زُهْرَةَ بْنِ كِلَابٍ رَجُلَانِ عُمَيْرُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ وَذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ ابْنُ عَبْدِ عَمْرِو بْنِ نَضْلَةَ حَلِيفٌ لَهُمْ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ مِنْ بَنِي غَبْشَانَ وَكَذَلِكَ قَالَهُ مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ فِي مَغَازِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ لَا عَقِبَ لَهُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ أَمَّا ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِسَهْوِهِ فَإِنَّهُ بَقِيَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ هَكَذَا ذَكَرَهُ شَيْخُنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ  

[Machine] He ﷺ led them in one of my evening prayers, which was Al-Asr prayer. He performed two rak'ahs then he recited the Tashahhud and then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up, followed by Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them). People hurriedly left, but Thul-Yadayn (the one with two hands) and Abu Bakr and Umar caught up with him. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, have you shortened the prayer or have you forgotten?" He said, "I have neither shortened the prayer nor have I forgotten." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned towards Abu Bakr and Umar and said, "What did Thul-Yadayn say?" They said, "He told the truth, O Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then went back and offered two rak'ahs and then performed the prostration of forgetfulness. Abu 'Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us that Abu Bakr Ahmad bin Ishaq Al-Faqih narrated to us, who informed us that Abu Al-Muthanna narrated to us, who said that my father narrated to me, and his father, Muta'ir, was present with him when he narrated this hadith. He said, "My father said to him, 'O father, you informed me that Thul-Shimalain (the one with two left hands) met you in a grove and informed you that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led them in one of his evening prayers, which was Al-Asr prayer, for two rak'ahs, and he concluded the prayer and performed the prostration of forgetfulness.' The commentator said that some narrators mentioned in the hadith of Abu Hurairah that Thul-Shimalain (the one with two left hands) said, 'O Messenger of Allah, have you shortened the prayer or have you forgotten?' But the two authentic Sheikhs, Imam Al-Bukhari and Imam Muslim, did not authenticate anything from these narrations due to the apparent confusion in them. Our Sheikh, Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz, may Allah have mercy on him, used to say that whoever says that has made a mistake, for Thul-Shimalain passed away before the death of the Prophet ﷺ and he did not have a reliable narrator.

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in the mosque while I was praying, and he called me. He said, "I prayed and then I came to you. What prevented you from answering me when I called you? Have you not heard Allah say, 'O you who have believed, respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life'?" I said, "I will teach you the greatest Surah in the Quran before I leave the mosque." He said, "So I walked with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until we were about to reach the door of the mosque. I said, 'I forgot,' and I reminded him. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you said such and such.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all worlds, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate, the Owner of the Day of Judgment. The Surah I was given is the repeating (Surah) and the Great Quran, which I have been given'." 3931 Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Nasr Ahmad ibn Sahl al-Faqih informed me, Salih ibn Muhammad al-Hafiz narrated to us, Ubaidullah ibn Umar al-Jushmi narrated to us, Yahya ibn Said al-Qattan narrated to us, Shu'bah mentioned the hadith in a similar manner, except that he said in his chain of narrators, from `An. And he said, "I called you and you did not answer me." He said, "I was praying." He mentioned the meaning of it
