Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ نا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ قَالَ نا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ صَعِدَ شَجَرَةً يَجْتَنِي سِوَاكًا مِنْ أَرَاكٍ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَجِبُوا مِنْ دِقَّةِ سَاقَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَهُمَا فِي الْمِيزَانِ أَثْقَلُ مِنْ أُحُدٍ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَاهُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَجِبُوا مِنْ دِقَّةِ سَاقَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَهُمَا فِي الْمِيزَانِ أَثْقَلُ مِنْ أُحُدٍ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَاهُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ
English Translation
Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna narrated to us, he said: al-Hajjaj ibn al-Minhal narrated to us, he said: Hammad narrated to us, from Asim, from Zirr, from Abdullah, that he climbed a tree to pluck a siwak twig from an arak tree. The companions of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) looked at him and were amazed by the thinness of his shins. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: «They are heavier in the Scale than Uhud.» This hadith — we do not know it to be narrated from Asim from Zirr from Abdullah except by Hammad ibn Salamah.
