Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْغُبَرِيُّ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ مَطَرٍ الْوَرَّاقِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَعْمَرَ، قَالَ لَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مَعْبَدٌ بِمَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ فِي شَأْنِ الْقَدَرِ أَنْكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَحَجَجْتُ أَنَا وَحُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيُّ حِجَّةً ‏.‏ وَسَاقُوا الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ كَهْمَسٍ وَإِسْنَادِهِ ‏.‏ وَفِيهِ بَعْضُ زِيَادَةٍ وَنُقْصَانُ أَحْرُفٍ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Ubayd al-Ghubari, Abu Kamil al-Jahdari, and Ahmad ibn Abdah narrated to us; they said: Hammad ibn Zayd narrated to us, from Matar al-Warraq, from Abdullah ibn Buraydah, from Yahya ibn Ya'mur, who said: When Ma'bad said what he said concerning the Divine Decree, we rejected it. He said: I and Humayd ibn Abd al-Rahman al-Himyari performed a pilgrimage. They related the hadith in the sense of the hadith of Kahmas and with its chain of transmission; it contains some additions and the omission of some words.

Translation notes
  • فَحَجَجْتُ أَنَا وَحُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيُّ حِجَّةً

    The Arabic explicitly says they performed Hajj (حجّة), while the English witness calls this an argument, which does not match the Arabic wording.

    Confirm whether the witness's ‘argued’ is an error; the translation follows the Arabic statement that they performed Hajj.
