ʿAbdah reported to us: Yazid informed us: Shuʿbah informed us, from ʿAsim, from Abu Waʾil, from ʿAbdullah, who said: I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, “Which sin is greatest?” He said: “Associating partners with Allah—setting up a rival to Him; committing adultery with your neighbor’s wife; and killing your child for fear of poverty, lest he eat with you.” Then ʿAbdullah recited: “Those who do not invoke another god alongside Allah…” Abu ʿAbd al-Rahman said: “This is an error; the correct version is the one before it. This report of Yazid is an error; rather, it is Wasil. And Allah, Exalted is He, knows best.”
