حَدَّثَنَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ دِينَارٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ الْمِقْدَامِ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ لَيْثِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَلاَ يَدْخُلِ الْحَمَّامَ بِغَيْرِ إِزَارٍ وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَلاَ يُدْخِلْ حَلِيلَتَهُ الْحَمَّامَ وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَلاَ يَجْلِسْ عَلَى مَائِدَةٍ يُدَارُ عَلَيْهَا بِالْخَمْرِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ لَيْثُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ صَدُوقٌ وَرُبَّمَا يَهِمُ فِي الشَّىْءِ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ لَيْثٌ لاَ يُفْرَحُ بِحَدِيثِهِ كَانَ لَيْثٌ يَرْفَعُ أَشْيَاءَ لاَ يَرْفَعُهَا غَيْرُهُ فَلِذَلِكَ ضَعَّفُوهُ ‏.‏

Translation

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Jabir reported that the Prophet said: ‘Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not enter a public bath without a waist-wrapper. Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not let his wife enter a public bath. Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not sit at a table where wine is passed around.’

Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan gharib hadith; we know it from Tawus, from Jabir, only through this route. Muhammad ibn Isma‘il said: ‘Layth ibn Abi Sulaym is truthful, but he sometimes makes mistakes.’ Muhammad ibn Isma‘il also said that Ahmad ibn Hanbal remarked: ‘Layth’s hadith is not relied upon; he used to attribute reports to the Prophet that others did not attribute to him, and for that reason they considered him weak.’

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The source’s grading is accompanied by substantial criticism of Layth ibn Abi Sulaym for errors and raising reports not raised by others; both assessments are preserved.
