Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ مَرْزُوقٍ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي الضُّحَى حَتَّى نَقُولَ لاَ يَدَعُ وَيَدَعُهَا حَتَّى نَقُولَ لاَ يُصَلِّي ‏ .‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏
