Hadith 346
Sayings
Ash-Sharid said, "The Prophet, (ﷺ), rode with me behind him and said, "Do you know any of the poetry of Umayya ibn Abi's-Salt?' 'Yes,' I replied and recited a line. 'Go on,' he said, until I had recited a hundred lines."
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الشَّرِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: أَرْدَفَنِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: هَلْ مَعَكَ مِنْ شِعْرِ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ. فَأَنْشَدْتُهُ بَيْتًا، فَقَالَ: هِيهِ، حَتَّى أَنْشَدْتُهُ مِئَةَ بَيْتٍ.
