حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ محمد قال حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، ادْعُ اللَّهَ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ، قَالَ: إِنِّي لَمْ أُبْعَثْ لَعَّانًا، وَلَكِنْ بُعِثْتُ رَحْمَةً.
Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.
Muhammad narrated to us: ‘Abd Allah ibn Muhammad said: Marwan ibn Mu‘awiya narrated to us: Yazid narrated to us, from Abu Hazim, from Abu Hurayra, who said: It was said, ‘Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah against the polytheists.’ He replied: ‘I was not sent as one who curses; rather, I was sent as a mercy.’
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic preserves an unusual or disordered opening chain sequence (‘Muhammad narrated … ‘Abd Allah ibn Muhammad said …’); it is translated as transmitted rather than silently regularized.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ محمد قال حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ
The opening chain sequence is irregularly worded in the source and may contain an editorial or transcription issue.
Should the sanad be preserved exactly as transmitted here pending collation, or is a name/verb missing?
