أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ - عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ تَنْبِذُوا الزَّهْوَ وَالرُّطَبَ جَمِيعًا وَلاَ تَنْبِذُوا الزَّبِيبَ وَالرُّطَبَ جَمِيعًا ".
Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna reported to us; he said: ʿUthman ibn ʿUmar narrated to us; he said: ʿAli—namely, Ibn al-Mubarak—narrated to us, from Yahya, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Qatadah, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘Do not steep dates just beginning to ripen together with fresh ripe dates, and do not steep raisins together with fresh ripe dates.’
