Sunan an-Nasa'i 3240
أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، ح وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ يَخْطُبْ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى خِطْبَةِ أَخِيهِ " .
Harun ibn Abd Allah reported to us; he said: Maan narrated to us; he said: Malik narrated to us. And al-Harith ibn Miskin—by recitation to him while I listened—from Ibn al-Qasim, who said: Malik narrated to me, from Muhammad ibn Yahya ibn Habban, from al-Araj, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: ‘None of you should make a proposal over his brother’s proposal.’
Translation notes
The chain combines two routes: Harun ibn Abd Allah’s route through Maan and Malik, and al-Harith ibn Miskin’s route read aloud while the narrator listened.
