حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ وَاصِلِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الْكُوفِيُّ، وَأَبُو زُرْعَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّلْتِ، عَنْ فُلَيْحِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا خَرَجَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ فِي طَرِيقٍ رَجَعَ فِي غَيْرِهِ . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي رَافِعٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَحَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ . وَرَوَى أَبُو تُمَيْلَةَ وَيُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ فُلَيْحِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ . قَالَ وَقَدِ اسْتَحَبَّ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ لِلإِمَامِ إِذَا خَرَجَ فِي طَرِيقٍ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فِي غَيْرِهِ اتِّبَاعًا لِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ . وَحَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ كَأَنَّهُ أَصَحُّ .

Abd al-Ala ibn Wasil ibn Abd al-Ala al-Kufi and Abu Zurah told us, both saying: Muhammad ibn al-Salt told us, from Fulayh ibn Sulayman, from Said ibn al-Harith, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: On the day of Eid, when the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, went out by one route, he would return by another. Reports on this subject are also related from Abdullah ibn Umar and Abu Rafi. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Abu Hurayrah is hasan gharib. Abu Tumaylah and Yunus ibn Muhammad narrated it from Fulayh ibn Sulayman, from Said ibn al-Harith, from Jabir ibn Abdullah. Some scholars considered it recommended for the imam to take a different route on the way back, following this hadith; this is the view of al-Shafii. The hadith of Jabir seems sounder.
