[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about a disbeliever who converts to Islam at the hands of a Muslim man, what should be done in this situation? He said, "He is more deserving of it (Islam) than anyone else, both in his life and after his death." Then Uthman narrated to us, on the authority of Al-Hasan ibn Salam, on the authority of Abu Nuaim, on the authority of Abdul Aziz ibn Omar ibn Abdul Aziz, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Mawahib, on the authority of Tamim al-Dari, on the authority of the Prophet ﷺ with similar words. Abu Al-Hussein ibn Al-Fadl Al-Qattan informed us that Abdullah ibn Jafar reported to us, on the authority of Ya'qub ibn Sufyan, who heard from Abu Nuaim, who narrated from Abdul Aziz ibn Omar ibn Abdul Aziz, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Mawahib, that he said, "I heard Tamim al-Dari saying that Ya'qub ibn Sufyan is mistaken; Ibn Mawahib did not hear from Tamim al-Dari nor did he meet him."  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِيهِ؟ قَالَ هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِهِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ 21456 قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِنَحْوِهِ 21457 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ هَذَا خَطَأٌ ابْنُ مَوْهَبٍ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ تَمِيمٍ وَلَا لَحِقَهُ  

[Machine] I asked the Prophet ﷺ , what is the Sunnah (practice) for a man who accepts Islam from the disbelievers and is guided by a Muslim man? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: He is the most deserving of people to be responsible for his life and death. Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ibrahim al-Farisi informed us that Ibrahim ibn Abdullah al-Asbahani narrated to us that Muhammad ibn Sulaiman ibn Faris narrated to us that Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari said: Hisham ibn Ammar narrated to us that Yahya ibn Hamza mentioned this hadith in its meaning, then Muhammad ﷺ said: And some of them said that Abdullah ibn Mu'awiyah heard Tamim al-Dari, and it is not valid to attribute a statement to the Prophet ﷺ except for the one who was freed. Sheikh (religious scholar) Rahimahullah (may Allah have mercy on him) said, and it was narrated by Yazid ibn Khalid ibn Muawiyah al-Ramli from Yahya ibn Hamza.  

سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي الرَّجُلِ يُسْلِمُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ عَلَى يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ 21459 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْفَارِسِيُّ أنبأ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ فَارِسٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبُخَارِيُّ قَالَ قَالَ لَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ فَذَكَرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَاهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَوْهَبٍ سَمِعَ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ وَلَا يَصِحُّ لِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَرَوَاهُ يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الرَّمْلِيُّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَمْزَةَ  

Tamim asked: Messenger of Allah), what is the sunnah about a man who accepts Islam by advice and persuasion of a Muslim? He replied: He is the nearest to him in life and in death. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2918)   

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَقَالَ يَزِيدُ إِنَّ تَمِيمًا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي الرَّجُلِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ قَالَ هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فَعَادَ الْحَدِيثُ مَعَ ذِكْرِ قَبِيصَةَ فِيهِ إِلَى الْإِرْسَالِ  

[Machine] He said, "O Messenger of Allah, is it permissible for a polytheist to shake hands with a Muslim?" He (the Prophet) said, "He (the polytheist) has more right to do so in his life and after his death." Ibn Wahb narrated this hadith. Abu al-Husayn ibn al-Fadl informed us that Abdullah ibn Ja'far narrated this hadith. Ya'qub ibn Sufyan narrated it from Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna, who narrated it from Abu Bakr al-Hanafi. Abdullah ibn Mawahib narrated to us that Abu Sa'id ibn Abi 'Amr informed them. Abu al-Abbas al-Asamm narrated it from al-Rabi'i ibn Sulayman, who said, "Al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, commented on this hadith, saying, 'It is not reliable, as it is only narrated by Abdul Aziz ibn Umar from Ibn Mawahib, who is not known to us. We do not know if he met Tamim or not. Such a narration is not considered reliable to us or to you before confirming that it is unknown and I am not aware if it is authentic.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ الْمُسْلِمِ؟ قَالَ هُوَ أَوْلَى بِهِ فِي حَيَاتِهِ وَمَمَاتِهِ كَذَا قَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ 21462 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ فَذَكَرَهُ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَوْهَبٍ 21463 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ أَنْبَأَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِثَابِتٍ إِنَّمَا يَرْوِيهِ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَوْهَبٍ عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ وَابْنُ مَوْهَبٍ لَيْسَ بِمَعْرُوفٍ عِنْدَنَا وَلَا نَعْلَمُهُ لَقِيَ تَمِيمًا وَمِثْلُ هَذَا لَا يَثْبُتُ عِنْدَنَا وَلَا عِنْدَكَ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَنَّهُ مَجْهُولٌ وَلَا أَعْلَمُهُ مُتَّصِلًا  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever embraces Islam through the hands of a man, he becomes his protector. Abu Ahmad said: I heard Ibn Hammad saying: Al-Bukhari reported from Ja'far ibn al-Zubayr al-Shami from Al-Qasim that the narration was left. Abu Ahmad said: The sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, also narrated it. Mu'awiya ibn Yahya al-Saddafi also narrated it from Al-Qasim. And Mu'awiya ibn Yahya is also weak, and his narration cannot be relied upon."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ عَلَى يَدَيِ رَجُلٍ فَلَهُ وَلَاؤُهُ قَالَ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ حَمَّادٍ يَقُولُ قَالَ الْبُخَارِيُّ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ الشَّامِيُّ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ مَتْرُوكُ الْحَدِيثِ تَرَكُوهُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَرَوَاهُ أَيْضًا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الصَّدَفِيُّ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ وَمُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَيْضًا ضَعِيفٌ لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِهِ 21465 أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الشَّامِيِّ فَذَكَرَهُ
