حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ الْمُلاَئِيُّ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا أَرَادَ الْحَاجَةَ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ ثَوْبَهُ حَتَّى يَدْنُوَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَكَذَا رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى وَكِيعٌ وَأَبُو يَحْيَى الْحِمَّانِيُّ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا أَرَادَ الْحَاجَةَ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ ثَوْبَهُ حَتَّى يَدْنُوَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ ‏.‏ وَكِلاَ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ مُرْسَلٌ ‏.‏ وَيُقَالُ لَمْ يَسْمَعِ الأَعْمَشُ مِنْ أَنَسٍ وَلاَ مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَدْ نَظَرَ إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ رَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي ‏.‏ فَذَكَرَ عَنْهُ حِكَايَةً فِي الصَّلاَةِ ‏.‏ وَالأَعْمَشُ اسْمُهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ الْكَاهِلِيُّ وَهُوَ مَوْلًى لَهُمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ الأَعْمَشُ كَانَ أَبِي حَمِيلاً فَوَرَّثَهُ مَسْرُوقٌ ‏.‏

Qutaybah ibn Sa'id narrated to us; 'Abd al-Salam ibn Harb al-Mula'i narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Anas: When the Prophet ﷺ wanted to relieve himself, he would not lift his garment until he was close to the ground. Abu 'Isa said: Muhammad ibn Rabi'ah narrated this hadith from al-A'mash, from Anas, in this way. Waki' and Abu Yahya al-Himmani narrated from al-A'mash, who said: Ibn 'Umar said that when the Prophet ﷺ wanted to relieve himself, he would not raise his garment until he was near the ground. Both reports are mursal. It is said that al-A'mash did not hear from Anas or any of the Prophet's Companions, though he saw Anas ibn Malik praying and recounted an incident from him about prayer. Al-A'mash's name was Sulayman ibn Mihran Abu Muhammad al-Kahili, and he was their client. Al-A'mash said: My father was a hamīl, and Masruq inherited him.
