عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَحَادِيثَ سَمِعْتُهَا وَحَفِظْتُهَا ، مَا يَمْنَعُنِي أَنْ أُحَدِّثَ بِهَا إِلَّا أَنَّ أَصْحَابِي يُخَالِفُونَنِي فِيهَا .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ مُوَثَّقُونَ .

وَعَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْحَدِيثِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : هَذَا أَوْ نَحْوَهُ أَوْ شَكْلَهُ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Abu Idris al-Khawlani narrates: I saw Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him): when he finished narrating a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he would say: "This, or something like it, or something resembling it (are the words of the hadith)."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded this narration in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

وَعَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ قَالَ : قَالَ لِي عِمْرَانُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ : أَيْ مُطَرِّفٌ ، وَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرَى أَنِّي لَوْ شِئْتُ حَدَّثْتُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَوْمَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ لَا أُعِيدُ حَدِيثًا ، ثُمَّ لَقَدْ زَادَنِي بُطْأً عَنْ ذَلِكَ وَكَرَاهِيَةً لَهُ أَنَّ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَوْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - شَهِدْتُ كَمَا شَهِدُوا ، وَسَمِعْتُ كَمَا سَمِعُوا ، يُحَدِّثُونَ أَحَادِيثَ شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ ، فَكَانَ أَحْيَانًا يَقُولُ : لَوْ حَدَّثْتُكُمْ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ صَدَقْتُ ، وَأَحْيَانًا يَعْزِمُ يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ أَبُو هَارُونَ الْغَنَوِيُّ ، لَمْ أَرَ مَنْ تَرْجَمَهُ .
قُلْتُ : وَيَأْتِي حَدِيثُ عُمَرَ فِي بَابِ فِيمَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيْهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - .
Mutarrif narrates: Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me: "O Mutarrif! By Allah! I think that if I wished, I could narrate hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for two consecutive days without repeating anything. But then I do not do so, and I dislike it (that I should narrate hadiths), because some men from among the Companions of Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) (the narrator is in doubt, or perhaps the words are:) some of the Companions of Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) - I was present just as they were present, and I heard just as they heard - yet they narrate some hadiths which became confused for them." (The narrator says:) Sayyiduna Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) would sometimes say: "If I were to tell you that I heard the Prophet of Allah say such and such, I think that I would have spoken the truth." And sometimes Sayyiduna Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) would say with certainty: "I heard the Prophet of Allah say such and such."
Imam Ahmad recorded this narration; its chain contains a narrator, Abu Harun al-Ghanawi, and I have not seen anyone who has given his biography. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: The hadith narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) will come in the chapter containing the narrations about attributing a lie to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
