أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ يَمَانٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ عَطِشَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَوْلَ الْکَعْبَةِ فَاسْتَسْقَی فَأُتِيَ بِنَبِيذٍ مِنْ السِّقَايَةِ فَشَمَّهُ فَقَطَّبَ فَقَالَ عَلَيَّ بِذَنُوبٍ مِنْ زَمْزَمَ فَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ شَرِبَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ لَا وَهَذَا خَبَرٌ ضَعِيفٌ لِأَنَّ يَحْيَی بْنَ يَمَانٍ انْفَرَدَ بِهِ دُونَ أَصْحَابِ سُفْيَانَ وَيَحْيَی بْنُ يَمَانٍ لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِحَدِيثِهِ لِسُوئِ حِفْظِهِ وَکَثْرَةِ خَطَئِهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5719
It was narrated that Abu Mas’ud said: “The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم became thirsty around the Ka’bah so he called for a drink. Some Nabidh was brought in a water skin and he smelled it and frowned. He said: ‘Bring me a bucket of Zamzam (water).’ He poured it over it and drank some. A man said: ‘Is it unlawful, Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم?’ He said: ‘No.” (Da’if) He said: This narration is weak; because Yahya bin Yaman is alone among the companions of Sufyan reporting it. And Ya bin Yaman’s narrations are not used for proof due to his bad memory and many errors.
