[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: Loyalty is like a piece of flesh, it cannot be bought or gifted. This is a misconception of Yahya bin Sulaim or someone below him in the chain of narration. The narrators have indeed narrated it from Ubaidullah bin Umar, from Abdullah bin Dinar, from Ibn Umar, from the Prophet ﷺ that he prohibited the sale of loyalty and its gifting. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, narrated by Abu Abbas Muhammad bin Ya'qub verbally, narrated by Muhammad bin Ishaq al-Saghani, narrated by Shuja' bin al-Walid, narrated by Ubaidullah bin Umar and he mentioned it."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ الْوَلَاءُ لُحْمَةٌ كَلُحْمَةِ النَّسَبِ لَا يُبَاعُ وَلَا يُوهَبُ هَذَا وَهْمٌ مِنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ أَوْ مَنْ دُونَهُ فِي الْإِسْنَادِ وَالْمَتْنِ جَمِيعًا فَإِنَّ الْحُفَّاظَ إِنَّمَا رَوَوْهُ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الْوَلَاءِ وَعَنْ هِبَتِهِ 21438 أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ إِمْلَاءً أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الصَّغَانِيُّ ثنا شُجَاعُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَذَكَرَهُ
