[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever misses Friday prayer without a valid excuse should give in charity a dirham or half a dirham, or a measure of wheat or half a measure of wheat." Abu Abdullah Al-Haafiz informed us that Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Baalawayh informed him that Abdullah ibn Ahmad ibn Hanbal told him, "I heard my father being asked about the hadith of Hammam about Qatadah and the difference between Abu Al-Alaa and Hammam in it, and he said, 'Hammam is more reliable in our view than Ayoub.'" Imam Ahmad narrated it and Khalid ibn Qays narrated it from Qatadah, and it agreed with Hammam in the text of the hadith but differed from him in its chain of narration.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ فَاتَتْهُ الْجُمُعَةُ مِنْ غَيْرِ عُذْرٍ فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ بِدِرْهَمٍ أَوْ نِصْفِ دِرْهَمٍ أَوْ صَاعِ حِنْطَةٍ أَوْ نِصْفِ صَاعٍ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَالَوَيْهٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي وَسُئِلَ عَنْ حَدِيثِ هَمَّامٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ وَخِلَافِ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ إِيَّاهُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ هَمَّامٌ عِنْدَنَا أَحْفَظُ مِنْ أَيُّوبَ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ وَرَوَاهُ خَالِدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ فَوَافَقَ هَمَّامًا فِي مَتْنِ الْحَدِيثِ وَخَالَفَهُ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ
