Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَزَّارُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ أُمَّ أَيُّوبَ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَتَكَلَّفُوا لَهُ طَعَامًا فِيهِ مِنْ بَعْضِ هَذِهِ الْبُقُولِ فَكَرِهَ أَكْلَهُ فَقَالَ لأَصْحَابِهِ ‏ "‏ كُلُوهُ فَإِنِّي لَسْتُ كَأَحَدِكُمْ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ أُوذِيَ صَاحِبِي ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَأُمُّ أَيُّوبَ هِيَ امْرَأَةُ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ‏.‏

Translation

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

Al-Hasan ibn al-Sabbah al-Bazzar narrated to us: Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah narrated to us, from ‘Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Yazid, from his father, that Umm Ayyub informed him that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stayed with them. They prepared food for him containing some of these vegetables, but he disliked eating it. He said to his Companions: ‘Eat it, for I am not like you. I fear that I may harm my companion.’ Abu ‘Isa said: This hadith is hasan sahih gharīb (good, authentic, and rare). Umm Ayyub was the wife of Abu Ayyub al-Ansari.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The identity of the ‘companion’ is not specified in this text, so it is left unnamed.

  • حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَزَّارُ،

    The Arabic gives ‘Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Yazid; the witness says ‘Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Burdah.

    Should the narrator's name be corrected to ‘Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Yazid?

  • حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَزَّارُ،

    The English witness omits the chain from al-Hasan ibn al-Sabbah through ‘Ubayd Allah's father.

    Should the full chain be included?
