Arabic hadith text
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ دَخَلَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ عَلَى مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ وَهُوَ وَجِعٌ . بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الأَشْهَبِ وَزَادَ قَالَ أَلاَّ كُنْتَ حَدَّثْتَنِي هَذَا، قَبْلَ الْيَوْمِ قَالَ مَا حَدَّثْتُكَ أَوْ، لَمْ أَكُنْ لأُحَدِّثَكَ .
Translation
Yahya ibn Yahya narrated this to us; Yazid ibn Zuray narrated to us, from Yunus, from al-Hasan, who said: Ibn Ziyad came to Maqil ibn Yasar while he was ill. The report is like that of Abu al-Ashhab, with this addition: Ibn Ziyad said, “Why did you not tell me this before today?” He replied, “I did not tell you,” or “I was not going to tell you.”
