حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو کَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُخْتَارِ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ کَيْفَ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ إِنَّهُ عَمَلٌ غَيْرُ صَالِحٍ فَقَالَتْ قَرَأَهَا إِنَّهُ عَمِلَ غَيْرَ صَالِحٍ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد وَرَوَاهُ هَارُونُ النَّحْوِيُّ وَمُوسَی بْنُ خَلَفٍ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ کَمَا قَالَ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3983
Narrated Umm Salamah, Ummul Muminin: Shahr ibn Hawshab said: I asked Umm Salamah: How did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ read this verse: "For his conduct is unrighteous (innahu 'amalun ghayru salih". She replied: He read it: "He acted unrighteously" (innahu 'amila ghayra salih). Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Harun al-Nahwi and Musa bin Khalaf from Thabit as reported by the narrator Abd al-Aziz.
