Arabic hadith text

وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَبُولُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ ‏ .‏ حَدَّثَنَا بِذَلِكَ قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ‏.‏ وَحَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ لَهِيعَةَ ‏.‏ وَابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ضَعِيفٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ ضَعَّفَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ وَغَيْرُهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ حِفْظِهِ ‏.‏

Translation

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

This hadith was also narrated by Ibn Lahi'ah, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, from Abu Qatadah, who saw the Prophet ﷺ urinating while facing the qiblah. Qutaybah narrated this to us: Ibn Lahi'ah narrated to us. Jabir's report from the Prophet ﷺ is sounder than Ibn Lahi'ah's report. Ibn Lahi'ah is weak according to hadith scholars; Yahya ibn Sa'id al-Qattan and others considered him weak because of his memory.
