حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ لَيْثٍ صَاحِبُ الْکَرَابِيسِيِّ الْبَصْرِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِي الْعَدَّائُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ هَوْذَةَ أَلَا أُقْرِئُکَ کِتَابًا کَتَبَهُ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَی فَأَخْرَجَ لِي کِتَابًا هَذَا مَا اشْتَرَی الْعَدَّائُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ هَوْذَةَ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اشْتَرَی مِنْهُ عَبْدًا أَوْ أَمَةً لَا دَائَ وَلَا غَائِلَةَ وَلَا خِبْثَةَ بَيْعَ الْمُسْلِمِ الْمُسْلِمَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ لَيْثٍ وَقَدْ رَوَی عَنْهُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 1216
Narrated 'Abbad bin Laith Al-Karabisi [Al-Basri]: Abdul Majid bin Wahb narrated to us, he said: 'Al-'Adda' bin Khalid bin Hawdhah said to me: Shall I not read to you a letter that was written for me from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ?' He said: 'I said: Of course. So he took out a letter for me: This is what Al-'Adda' bin Khalid bin Hawdhah purchased from Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): He purchased from him a slave' - or - 'a female slave, having no ailments, nor being a runaway, nor having any malicious behavior. Sold by a Muslim to a Muslim.' [Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Gharib, we do not know of it except from 'Abbad bin Laith. More than one of the people of Hadith have reported this Hadith from him.
