حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو السَّائِبِ، سَلْمُ بْنُ جُنَادَةَ بْنِ سَلْمٍ الْكُوفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ " اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ " . قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ : (لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ شَيْءٌ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَوْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ ) فَتَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَأَسْلَمُوا فَحَسُنَ إِسْلاَمُهُمْ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ. غَرِيبٌ يُسْتَغْرَبُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ . وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ وَعَرَفَهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الزُّهْرِيِّ .

Salim ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Umar reported from his father: ‘On the day of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah said, “O Allah, curse Abu Sufyan! O Allah, curse al-Harith ibn Hisham! O Allah, curse Safwan ibn Umayyah!” Then the verse was revealed: “You have no say in the matter—whether He turns to them in mercy or punishes them” (Qur’an 3:128). Allah then turned to them in mercy; they accepted Islam and became good Muslims.’ Abu ‘Isa graded this hadith hasan gharib. He said it is unusual through ‘Umar ibn Hamzah from Salim, from his father. Al-Zuhri also narrated it from Salim, from his father; Muhammad ibn Isma‘il did not recognize it through ‘Umar ibn Hamzah but did recognize it through al-Zuhri.
