حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَبِي غَلَّابٍ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ حِطَّانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الرَّقَاشِيِّ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ زَادَ فَإِذَا قَرَأَ فَأَنْصِتُوا وَقَالَ فِي التَّشَهُّدِ بَعْدَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ زَادَ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيکَ لَهُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد وَقَوْلُهُ فَأَنْصِتُوا لَيْسَ بِمَحْفُوظٍ لَمْ يَجِئْ بِهِ إِلَّا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 973
This tradition has also been transmitted by Hittan bin Abdullah al-Ruqashi through a different chain of narrators. This version adds: When he ( the imam) recites the Quran, keep silence (and listen attentively). And in the tashahhud this version adds after the words “I testify that there is no god but Allah” the words “He is alone, and there is no associate of Him. ” Abu Dawud said: His word "And keep silence" is not guarded; it has been narrated by Sulaiman al-Taimi alone in his version.
