حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَی حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَی عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ يَحْيَی بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ حَتَّی تَرَوْنِي قَدْ خَرَجْتُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد لَمْ يَذْکُرْ قَدْ خَرَجْتُ إِلَّا مَعْمَرٌ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ لَمْ يَقُلْ فِيهِ قَدْ خَرَجْتُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 540
This tradition has also been reported through a different chain of narrators in a similar way. This version says: “Until you see me that I have come out”. Abu dawud said: No one except Mamar has narrated the words “that I have come out”. And the version transmitted by Ibn ‘Uyainah from Mamar does not mention the words “that I have come out”.
