Asking Allah for pardon and well-being

bazzar:16ʿAbdullāh b. al-Waḍḍāḥ al-Kūfī > al-Ḥusayn b. ʿAlī al-Juʿfī > Zāʾidah > ʿĀṣim b. Bahdalah > Abū Ṣāliḥ > Abū Hurayrah

[AI] Abu Bakr ᴿᴬ stood among us and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood among us as I am standing among you today, and he said: "People have not been given anything better than pardon and well-being, so ask Allah for them." This hadith has a fair chain, and we do not know anyone who narrated it with a connected chain except Zaidah from Asim from Abu Salih from Abu Hurairah, and from Zaidah no one except al-Husayn ibn Ali.

البزّار:١٦حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْوَضَّاحِ الْكُوفِيُّ قَالَ نا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجُعْفِيُّ قَالَ نا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَامَ فِينَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ، فَقَالَ: قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَقِيَامِي فِيكُمُ الْيَوْمَ، فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ النَّاسَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا شَيْئًا أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْعَفْوِ وَالْعَافِيَةِ، فَسَلُوهُمَا اللَّهَ». وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ حَسَنُ الْإِسْنَادِ، وَلَا نَعْلَمُ أَسْنَدَهُ إِلَّا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَلَا عَنْ زَائِدَةَ إِلَّا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , stood among us in the first year, just as I am standing among you now, and he said, "Indeed, people have not been given anything better than forgiveness and good health, so ask Allah for both of them." And Muhammad ibn Rafi' narrated to us, he said: Hussein ibn Ali narrated to us from Zaidah from Asim from Abu Salih who said: Abu Bakr stood on the pulpit and narrated to us this narration twice, one time like this and another time like that.

الكبرى للنسائي:١٠٦٥٦أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَامَ فِينَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ

قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ أَوَّلَ كَقِيَامِي فِيكُمْ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ النَّاسَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا شَيْئًا هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ الْعَفْوِ وَالْعَافِيَةِ فَسَلُوهُمَا اللهَ» 10657 وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ قَالَ قَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ نَحْوَهُ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّةً هَكَذَا وَمَرَّةً هَكَذَا
