muslim:2162a – [Chain 1] Ḥarmalah b. Yaḥyá > Ibn Wahb > Yūnus > Ibn Shihāb > Ibn al-Musayyab > Abū Hurayrah [Chain 2] ʿAbd b. Ḥumayd > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > Ibn al-Musayyab > Abū Hurayrah

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “The rights of a Muslim over another Muslim are five.”

from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Five things are incumbent upon a Muslim toward his brother: (1) returning the greeting of peace, (2) saying ‘may Allah have mercy on you’ to one who sneezes, (3) accepting an invitation, (4) visiting the sick, and (5) following funeral processions.”

مسلم:٢١٦٢a – حَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «حَقُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ خَمْسٌ». 

ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «خَمْسٌ تَجِبُ لِلْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى أَخِيهِ: (١) رَدُّ السَّلاَمِ، (٢) وَتَشْمِيتُ الْعَاطِسِ، (٣) وَإِجَابَةُ الدَّعْوَةِ، (٤) وَعِيَادَةُ الْمَرِيضِ، (٥) وَاتِّبَاعُ الْجَنَائِزِ».

قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ كَانَ مَعْمَرٌ يُرْسِلُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَأَسْنَدَهُ مَرَّةً عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

bayhaqi:14530 – Abū al-Ḥusayn ʿAlī b. Muḥammad b. Bishrān> Ismāʿīl b. Muḥammad al-Ṣaffār > Aḥmad b. Manṣūr > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > Rasūl Allāh Ṣllá Allāh

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are five obligations of a Muslim towards his brother: returning greetings, responding to a sneeze, accepting an invitation when he is invited, visiting the sick, and attending funerals." Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, who was informed by Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Quraysh, who was informed by Al-Hasan bin Sufyan, who was informed by Fayyad bin Zuhair, who was informed by Abdul Razzaq, who was informed by Ma'mar, who narrated from Ibn Mas'ood. This hadith is mentioned by Muslim in Sahih, narrated by Abdul Hameed, who was informed by Abdul Razzaq. Ma'mar used to transmit this hadith frequently, and when he was asked about it, he would trace it back. And indeed, Al-Awza'i, Yunus bin Zaid, and Uqail also traced it.
