Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعَافَى، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عِمْرَانَ - عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُتَوَكِّلِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى أَنْ يُنْبَذَ التَّمْرُ وَالزَّبِيبُ وَالتَّمْرُ وَالْبُسْرُ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ انْتَبِذُوا الزَّبِيبَ فَرْدًا وَالتَّمْرَ فَرْدًا وَالْبُسْرَ فَرْدًا ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَبُو كَثِيرٍ اسْمُهُ يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn ʿAbdullah ibn ʿAmmar reported to us; he said: al-Muʿafa—meaning Ibn ʿImran—informed us, from Ismaʿil ibn Muslim, from Abu al-Mutawakkil, from Abu Saʿid al-Khudri, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade steeping dried dates with raisins, and dried dates with unripe dates. He said: ‘Steep raisins by themselves, dried dates by themselves, and unripe dates by themselves.’ Abu ʿAbd al-Rahman said: ‘Abu Kathir’s name is Yazid ibn ʿAbd al-Rahman.’

Translation notes
  • The report concerns preparing steeped drinks from the fruits separately; al-busr refers to unripe dates.
