Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1228 — from his father that a man came to Sayyiduna
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صُدْرَانَ قَالَ : نَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ زَيْدٌ : عَلَيْكَ بِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَإِنِّي بَيْنَمَا أَنَا وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَفُلَانٌ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، نَدْعُو وَنَذْكُرُ رَبَّنَا عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، إِذْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- حَتَّى جَلَسَ إِلَيْنَا ، فَسَكَتْنَا ، فَقَالَ : I " عُودُوا لِلَّذِي كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ I " . قَالَ زَيْدٌ : فَدَعَوْتُ أَنَا وَصَاحِبِي قَبْلَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- يُؤَمِّنُ عَلَى دُعَائِنَا ، ثُمَّ دَعَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِثْلَ مَا سَأَلَكَ صَاحِبَايَ ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا لَا يُنْسَى . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : I " آمِينَ I " فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، نَحْنُ نَسْأَلُ اللهَ عِلْمًا لَا يُنْسَى . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : سَبَقَكُمَا بِهَا الْغُلَامُ الدَّوْسِيُّ . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ إِلَّا الْفَضْلُ ، وَلَا يُرْوَى عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ I " .
Muhammad bin Qays (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father that a man came to Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about something. Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Go to Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), for once I, Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) and another man were sitting in the mosque, supplicating and remembering our Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us and sat with us. We fell silent (out of respect), so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Return to what you were engaged in (of remembrance and supplication).' Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then my companion and I supplicated before Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kept saying Amin to our supplication. Then Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) supplicated: 'Allahumma inni as'aluka mithla ma sa'alaka sahibaya, wa as'aluka ilman la yunsa' (O Allah, I ask You for all that my two companions have asked You for, and I ask You for knowledge that is never forgotten). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Amin.' At this we said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we too ask Allah Almighty for knowledge that is never forgotten.' The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'This young man of Daws has beaten you to it.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Isma'il except al-Fadl, and it is not narrated from Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) except with this chain."
