Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3430 — The Successor Shahr bin Hawshab

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ حُبَاشٍ الْحِمَّانِيُّ ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ الْعَطَّارُ ، نَا سَيْفُ بْنُ عَمِيرَةَ ، عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ، نَسْأَلُهَا عَنْ حُرُوفِ الْقُرْآنِ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ، إِنِّي لَأُحَدِّثُ نَفْسِي بِالشَّيْءِ لَوْ تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ لَأَحْبَطْتُ أَجْرِي ، وَلَوِ اطُّلِعَ عَلَيَّ لَضُرِبَتْ عُنُقِي . قَالَتْ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُسْأَلُ عَنْ مِثْلِ مَا سَأَلْتَ عَنْهُ ، فَقَالَ : لَا يُلَقَّى ذَلِكَ الْكَلَامَ إِلَّا مُؤْمِنٌ .
لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ أَبَانَ إِلَّا سَيْفٌ .
The Successor Shahr bin Hawshab (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: We were sitting with the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her), asking her about the letters (modes of recitation) of the Qur'an, when a man said: "O Mother of the Believers, I feel something within myself such that if I were to utter it, my reward would be lost, and if anyone came to know of this state of mine, my neck would be struck off." She said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); he (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about something similar to what you have asked about, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Such a thing (a whispering) is cast only into the heart of a believer.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Only Sayf narrated this hadith from Aban."
