حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ قَدِمَ عَبَّادُ بْنُ کَثِيرٍ الْمَدِينَةَ فَمَالَ إِلَی مَجْلِسِ الْعَلَائِ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَقَامَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ هَذَا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا انْتَصَفَ شَعْبَانُ فَلَا تَصُومُوا فَقَالَ الْعَلَائُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِکَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2337
Narrated Abu Hurairah: Abdul Aziz ibn Muhammad said: Abbad ibn Kathir came to Madina and went to the assembly of al-Ala. He caught hold of his hand and made him stand and said: O Allah, he narrates a tradition from his father on the authority of Abu Hurairah who reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: When the middle of Sha'ban comes, do not fast. Al-Ala said: O Allah, my father narrated this tradition on the authority of Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ
