حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الصَّفَّارُ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ حَسَّانَ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَتْهُ جَدَّتَاهُ، صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ عُلَيْبَةَ وَدُحَيْبَةُ بِنْتُ عُلَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَتَاهُ عَنْ قَيْلَةَ بِنْتِ مَخْرَمَةَ، وَكَانَتَا، رَبِيبَتَيْهَا وَقَيْلَةُ جَدَّةُ أَبِيهِمَا أُمُّ أُمِّهِ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ قَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَذَكَرَتِ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ حَتَّى جَاءَ رَجُلٌ وَقَدِ ارْتَفَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ وَعَلَيْكَ السَّلاَمُ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَعَلَيْهِ تَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم - أَسْمَالُ مُلَيَّتَيْنِ كَانَتَا بِزَعْفَرَانٍ وَقَدْ نَفَضَتَا وَمَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عُسَيْبُ نَخْلَةٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ قَيْلَةَ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ ‏.‏

‘Abd Allah ibn Hassan reported that his grandmothers, Safiyyah bint ‘Ulaybah and Duhaibah bint ‘Ulaybah, narrated to him from Qaylah bint Makhramah. They were Qaylah’s two stepdaughters, and Qaylah was their father’s grandmother—the mother of their mother. Qaylah said: We came to Allah’s Messenger, and she related the hadith at length. Near its end, a man came when the sun had risen high and said, ‘Peace be upon you, Messenger of Allah.’ The Messenger of Allah replied, ‘And upon you be peace and Allah’s mercy.’ He was wearing two worn garments dyed with saffron whose color had faded, and he had a palm stalk with him.

Abu ‘Isa said: We know the hadith of Qaylah only through the narration of ‘Abd Allah ibn Hassan.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The Arabic’s kinship wording is unusual: it calls Safiyyah and Duhaibah Qaylah’s two stepdaughters and Qaylah their father’s grandmother (their maternal grandmother). The source only provides the ending of a longer report here and says it is known through ‘Abd Allah ibn Hassan alone.
