حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ حَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُرَيِّ بْنِ قَطَرِيٍّ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الصَّيْدِ أَصِيدُهُ قَالَ أَنْهِرُوا الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتُمْ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ وَكُلُوا حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ يَعْنِي كُنْتُ أَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ عَنْ حَدِيثِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ وَهُوَ إِلَى جَنْبِي لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ بُعِثَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ كُنْتُ أُحَدِّثُ حَدِيثًا عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا عَدِيُّ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْكُوفَةِ فَلَوْ أَتَيْتُهُ وَكُنْتُ أَنَا الَّذِي أَسْمَعُهُ مِنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي كُنْتُ أُحَدَّثُ عَنْكَ حَدِيثًا فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّذِي أَسْمَعُهُ مِنْكَ قَالَ لَمَّا بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَرْتُ حَتَّى كُنْتُ فِي أَقْصَى الرُّومِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ.
English Translation
Abdur-Razzaq narrated to us: Isra'il narrated to us: Simak ibn Harb narrated to us, from Murayy ibn Qatari, from Adi ibn Hatim, who said: I asked the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, about game which I hunt. He said: Let the blood flow with whatever you wish, mention the name of Allah, and eat. Yunus narrated to us: Hammad, that is, Ibn Zayd, narrated to us: Ayyub informed us, from Muhammad ibn Sirin, from Abu Ubaydah ibn Hudhayfah, from a man who said: I used to ask people about the hadith of Adi ibn Hatim while he was beside me and I did not ask him, so I went to him and asked him. He said: Yes, when the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was sent, at the time he was sent - and he mentioned the hadith. Muhammad ibn Abi Adi narrated to us, from Ibn Awn, from Muhammad, from Ibn Hudhayfah, who said: I used to narrate a hadith about Adi ibn Hatim. I said: This is Adi ibn Hatim in the vicinity of Kufa - if only I went to him and became the one who heard it from him myself. So I went to him and said: I used to have a hadith narrated to me about you, and I wanted to be the one who hears it from you. He said: When the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was sent, I fled until I was in the farthest part of Byzantine territory - and he mentioned the hadith.
