Sunan an-Nasa'i 1577
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِذَا قُلْتَ لِصَاحِبِكَ أَنْصِتْ وَالإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ فَقَدْ لَغَوْتَ " .
Muhammad ibn Salamah and al-Harith ibn Miskin narrated to us; the latter was read to while I listened, and the wording is his. Ibn al-Qasim said: Malik narrated to me, from Ibn Shihab, from Ibn al-Musayyab, from Abu Hurairah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “When you say to your companion, ‘Listen!’ while the imam is delivering the sermon, you have engaged in idle speech.”
Translation notes
‘The latter was read to while I listened’ renders a transmission formula; ‘the wording is his’ refers to al-Harith ibn Miskin.
