Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 27882 — Those who disliked storytelling
٢٧٨٨٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا ابن مهدي عن سفيان عن سلمة عن أبي الدرداء جار لسلمة قال: قلت لعائشة: (أو) (١) قال لها: رجل آتي القاص (يدعو) (٢) (لي) (٣)؟ فقالت: لأن تدعو لنفسك خير من أن يدعو لك (القاص) (٤) (٥).
Abu al-Darda', who was a neighbour of Salamah, said: I asked Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), or a man asked her: May I go to a storyteller so that he may supplicate for me? She said: That you supplicate for yourself is better than that a storyteller supplicate for you.
