وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَةَ بْنَ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ أُبَيٌّ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ : " وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُهَا " ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ : " وَأَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي هِيَ اللَّيْلَةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقِيَامِهَا ، هِيَ لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ " ، وَإِنَّمَا شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ فِي هَذَا الْحَرْفِ ، هِيَ اللَّيْلَةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَنَا بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " وَحَدَّثَنِي بِهَا صَاحِبٌ لِي عَنْهُ " .
Zirr bin Hubaish reported that Ubayy bin Ka'b (RA) said about Lailat-ul-Qadr: By Allah, I know well about it. Shu'bah said: To the best of my knowledge it was the twenty-seventh night for which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to stand for prayer. Shu'bah doubted these words: That it was the night for which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to stand for prayer. And (he further) said: This was narrated to me by a friend of mine from him (the Holy Prophet).
