Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 16554 — I saw Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Maslamah

حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ الْقَاضِي، ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَأَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ مَسْلَمَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ رَأَى بِنْتَ الضَّحَّاكِ عَلَى جِدَارٍ تَلْعَبُ فَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَتَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا وَأَنْتَ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟، قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِذَا قَذَفَ اللهُ فِي قَلْبِ امْرِئٍ خِطْبَةَ امْرَأَةٍ فَلَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهَا» هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَخَالَفَ النَّاسَ فِيهِ، قَدِ اخْتَلَفَ الرُّوَاةُ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، وَالصَّوَابُ عِنْدِي، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ، مَا رَوَاهُ حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ "
Sayyiduna Sahl bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I saw Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Maslamah al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him): he saw the daughter of al-Dahhak playing on a wall and began looking at her. It was said to him: Do you look at her when you are a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When Allah puts into a person's heart (the thought of) proposing marriage to a woman, there is no harm in his looking at her."
Hammad bin Salamah narrated it thus, and in it he went against the other narrators. Those who narrate from al-Hajjaj bin Artah differ over this hadith, and in my view — and Allah knows best — the correct version is what Hafs bin Ghiyath and Yazid bin Harun narrated from al-Hajjaj, from Muhammad bin Sulayman bin Abi Hathmah, from his paternal uncle Sahl bin Abi Hathmah, from Muhammad bin Maslamah (may Allah be pleased with him).
