حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ مِرْآةُ أَخِيهِ فَإِنْ رَأَى بِهِ أَذًى فَلْيُمِطْهُ عَنْهُ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَيَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ضَعَّفَهُ شُعْبَةُ . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ .
Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.
Ahmad ibn Muhammad narrated to me: ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak informed us: Yahya ibn ‘Ubayd Allah informed us, from his father, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Each of you is a mirror for his brother. If he sees something harmful on him, let him remove it from him.”
Abu ‘Isa said: Shu‘bah regarded Yahya ibn ‘Ubayd Allah as weak. There is also a report on this topic from Anas.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic says to remove the harmful thing seen on one’s brother, retaining the mirror metaphor. The compiler notes that Shu‘bah weakened Yahya ibn ‘Ubayd Allah.
حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ،
The English witness omits all transmitters in the source chain.
Should the complete isnad be retained in the English translation?
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَيَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ضَعَّفَهُ شُعْبَةُ .
The compiler states that Shu‘bah weakened Yahya ibn ‘Ubayd Allah; the English witness omits this narrator criticism.
Should this evaluation remain directly attached to the hadith record?
قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ .
The Arabic mentions a related report from Anas, absent from the witness.
Should the corroborating report note be included?
