حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَامِرُ بْنُ أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْخَزَّازُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَا نَحَلَ وَالِدٌ وَلَدًا مِنْ نَحْلٍ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَدَبٍ حَسَنٍ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَامِرِ بْنِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْخَزَّازِ وَهُوَ عَامِرُ بْنُ صَالِحِ بْنِ رُسْتُمَ الْخَزَّازُ وَأَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى هُوَ ابْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِي ‏.‏ وَهَذَا عِنْدِي حَدِيثٌ مُرْسَلٌ ‏.‏

Translation

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

Nasr ibn ‘Ali al-Jahdami narrated to us: ‘Amir ibn Abi ‘Amir al-Khazzaz narrated to us: Ayyub ibn Musa narrated to us, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “A father gives his child no gift better than good manners.”

Abu ‘Isa said: This hadith is gharib; we know it only through the narration of ‘Amir ibn Abi ‘Amir al-Khazzaz, whose name is ‘Amir ibn Salih ibn Rustum al-Khazzaz. Ayyub ibn Musa is the son of ‘Amr ibn Sa‘id ibn al-‘As. In my view, this hadith is mursal.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed

  • The compiler both calls the report gharib and states that in his view it is mursal. The biographical identifications of ‘Amir and Ayyub are included as stated.

  • ‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَامِرِ بْنِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْخَزَّازِ وَهُوَ عَامِرُ بْنُ صَالِحِ بْنِ رُسْتُمَ الْخَزَّازُ وَأَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى هُوَ ابْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِي ‏.

    The source identifies ‘Amir ibn Abi ‘Amir al-Khazzaz as ‘Amir ibn Salih ibn Rustum al-Khazzaz, and states Ayyub ibn Musa’s lineage.

    Should both biographical clarifications remain in the translated block?

  • ‏ وَهَذَا عِنْدِي حَدِيثٌ مُرْسَلٌ ‏.

    Abu ‘Isa says ‘in my view’ this report is mursal, distinguishing his assessment from the earlier gharib label.

    Should both the source-route classification and Abu ‘Isa’s own mursal assessment be retained?

  • حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ،

    The witness omits the chain and all compiler comments.

    Should the chain and source-critical notes be included?
