Arabic hadith text

وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَارِثُ بْنُ الْفُضَيْلِ الْخَطْمِيُّ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ مَا كَانَ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلاَّ وَقَدْ كَانَ لَهُ حَوَارِيُّونَ يَهْتَدُونَ بِهَدْيِهِ وَيَسْتَنُّونَ بِسُنَّتِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ صَالِحٍ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ قُدُومَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَاجْتِمَاعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ مَعَهُ ‏.‏

Translation

Abu Bakr ibn Ishaq ibn Muhammad informed us; Ibn Abi Maryam informed us; Abd al-Aziz ibn Muhammad narrated to us, saying: al-Harith ibn al-Fudayl al-Khatmi informed me, from Ja'far ibn Abdullah ibn al-Hakam, from Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Miswar ibn Makhramah, from Abu Rafi', the client of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, ‘There was no prophet who did not have disciples who were guided by his guidance and followed his way.’ It is like Salih's hadith, but it does not mention Ibn Mas'ud's arrival or Ibn Umar meeting with him.
