Musnad Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili 42:90

From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA)

من مسند أبي سعيد الخدري

Hadith 42:90

Muhammad ibn al-Ala narrated to us, Yunus ibn Bukayr narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Ishaq, from Yazid ibn Abdullah ibn Qusayt, from Ata ibn Yasar, from Abu Sa’id, who said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) mounted the pulpit and said: "O people, I had been shown the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr), but it was snatched away from me, and perhaps that is better. And I saw as if there were two bracelets of gold on my forearms, so I disliked them, and I blew upon them, and they flew away. I interpreted them as these two liars: the master of Yemen, whose name was al-Aswad ibn Ka’b al-Ansi, and the master of Yamamah." And al-Aswad had spoken during the time of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace).

حدثنا محمد بن العلاء حدثنا يونس بن بكير عن محمد بن إسحاق عن يزيد بن عبد الله بن قسيط عن عطاء بن يسار عن أبي سعيد قال * ركب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم المنبر فقال يا أيها الناس إني قد كنت أريت ليلة القدر وقد انتزعت مني وعسى أن يكون ذلك خيرا ورأيت كأن في ذراعي سوارين من ذهب فكرهتهما فنفختهما فطارا فأولتهما هذين الكذابين صاحب اليمن واسمه الأسود بن كعب العنسي وصاحب اليمامة وكان الأسود قد تكلم في زمان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
