حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ جَارِيَةَ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ قَالَ شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَفَلَ الرُّبُعَ فِي الْبَدْأَةِ وَالثُّلُثَ فِي الرَّجْعَةِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ سَمِعْت أَبِي يَقُولُ لَيْسَ فِي الشَّامِ رَجُلٌ أَصَحُّ حَدِيثًا مِنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي التَّنُوخِيَّ.
English Translation
Abu al-Mughirah told us, Sa'id ibn Abd al-Aziz told us, Sulayman ibn Musa told us, from Ziyad ibn Jariyah, from Habib ibn Maslamah, who said: I witnessed the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, grant an extra share of a quarter on the outward journey and a third on the return. Abu Abd al-Rahman said: I heard my father say: There is no man in Syria more sound in hadith than Sa'id ibn Abd al-Aziz, meaning al-Tanukhi.
