Sahih al-Bukhari 2939
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَعَثَ بِكِتَابِهِ إِلَى كِسْرَى، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى عَظِيمِ الْبَحْرَيْنِ، يَدْفَعُهُ عَظِيمُ الْبَحْرَيْنِ إِلَى كِسْرَى، فَلَمَّا قَرَأَهُ كِسْرَى خَرَّقَهُ، فَحَسِبْتُ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِمُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُمَزَّقُوا كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍ.
'Abdullah ibn Yusuf narrated to us; al-Layth narrated to us and said: 'Uqayl narrated to me from Ibn Shihab, who said: 'Ubayd Allah ibn 'Abdullah ibn 'Utba informed me that 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas told him that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent his letter to Kisra and instructed him to deliver it to the governor of Bahrain, who would deliver it to Kisra. When Kisra read it, he tore it up. I think Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab said: The Prophet (ﷺ) then supplicated against them that they be utterly scattered.
Translation notes
فَحَسِبْتُ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ
The narrator explicitly marks uncertainty over the attribution of the concluding supplication.
Confirm that the narrator's uncertainty is preserved.
