حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مَنْ رَمَانَا بِاللَّيْلِ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا. قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: فِي إِسْنَادِهِ نَظَرٌ.

‘Abd Allah ibn Yazid related to us: Sa‘id ibn Abi Ayyub related to us: Yahya ibn Abi Sulayman related to me, from Sa‘id al-Maqburi, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him peace, who said: ‘Whoever attacks us at night is not one of us.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah said: ‘Its chain requires scrutiny.’

The editor’s grading note is included at the end of the Arabic source and has been translated separately from the prophetic report.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مَنْ رَمَانَا بِاللَّيْلِ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا.
رمانا can mean to throw/shoot at or attack; the exact action is not specified here. The source also appends an isnad evaluation.
Should the verb be rendered as “attacks us” or more literally as “shoots at us”?
