حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الطَّالَقَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ عِکْرِمَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَصْحَابِ الْمِکْيَالِ وَالْمِيزَانِ إِنَّکُمْ قَدْ وُلِّيتُمْ أَمْرَيْنِ هَلَکَتْ فِيهِ الْأُمَمُ السَّالِفَةُ قَبْلَکُمْ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مَرْفُوعًا إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ وَحُسَيْنُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا بِإِسْنَادٍ صَحِيحٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَوْقُوفًا
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 1217
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to the people of weights and measures: Indeed you have been entrusted with two matters that nations preceding you in the past were destroyed for. [Abu 'Eisa said:] We do not know this Hadith to be Marfu' except through the narration of Husain bin Qais, and Husain bin Qais was graded weak in Hadith. This has been reported as Maquf narration from Ibn 'Abbas with a Sahih chain of narration.
