الكبرى للنسائي:٦٧١٦أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَأْكُلُوا بِالشِّمَالِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِالشِّمَالِ»  

nasai-kubra:6717ʿAmr b. ʿAlī > Yaḥyá > ʿUbaydullāh > al-Zuhrī > Abū Bakr b. ʿUbaydullāh from his father

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one of you eats, let him eat with his right hand, and when he drinks, let him drink with his right hand, for indeed, Satan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand." Ubaidullah bin Saad bin Ibrahim informed us on the authority of his uncle, who reported from Shareek, who reported from Ubaidullah, who reported from Nafi', who reported from Ibn Umar, who reported from the Prophet ﷺ with the same narration. Abu Abdur Rahman said to us, "This is a mistake, and the correct narrative is the one before it."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِيَمِينِهِ وَإِذَا شَرِبَ فَلْيَشْرَبْ بِيَمِينِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ» 6718 أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ
