Mustadrak al-Hakim 2943 — The modes of recitation
حدثني أبو الحسين محمد بن محمد بن يعقوب الحافظ المقرئ، حدثنا أبو القاسم العبَّاس بن الفضل بن شاذانَ المقرئ، حدثنا إبراهيم بن مِهرانَ الأَيْلي، حدثنا مِهرانُ بن داود بن مِهران المقرئ، حدثنا عبد الله بن أُذَينة الطائي، عن موسى بن عُبيدة، عن نافع، عن ابن عمر قال: ما هَمَزَ رسولُ الله ﷺ ولا أبو بكر ولا عمرُ، ولا الخلفاءُ، وإنما الهمزُ بِدْعةٌ ابتَدَعوها مَن بَعدَهم (1).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that neither the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ever pronounced a hamzah (in words such as "nabi"), nor Abu Bakr, nor Umar, nor the other Caliphs. Rather, pronouncing the hamzah (in such words) is an innovation invented by the people who came after them. (Note that regarding one of the narrators in its chain, Musa bin Ubaydah, Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal said: I do not write the hadith of Musa bin Ubaydah al-Rabadhi and Abd al-Rahman bin Ziyad al-Ifriqi, because they are weak.)
سمعتُ أبا عبد الله محمد بن يعقوب الشَّيباني الحافظ، يقول: سمعت أبا زكريا يحيى بن محمد بن يحيى يقول: سمعت أحمد بن حَنبَل يقول: لا أكتبُ حديثَ موسى بن عُبيدة الرَّبذِي ولا حديثَ عبد الرحمن بن زياد الأَفريقي.
Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ya'qub al-Shaybani al-Hafiz narrates from Abu Zakariyya Yahya bin Muhammad bin Yahya, and he from Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, that he said: "I neither write the hadith of Musa bin Ubaydah al-Rabadhi, nor do I record (as proof) the hadith of Abd al-Rahman bin Ziyad al-Ifriqi."

Shaykh Adil Murshid et al.
(1) إسناده واهٍ، عبد الله بن أذينة - وهو عبد الله بن عطارد بن أذينة - قال ابن عدي: منكر الحديث، وقال الدارقطني: متروك الحديث، واتهمه الحاكم والنقاش - كما في "لسان الميزان" - بأنه روى أحاديث موضوعة، وموسى بن عبيدة الرَّبَذي متفق على ضعفه ووهّاه الذهبي في "تلخيص المستدرك"، وإبراهيم بن مهران ومهران بن داود لم نقف على ترجمتهما.
Grading of the chain: This chain is "wahi" (extremely weak). Concerning 'Abd Allah bin Udhaynah (who is 'Abd Allah bin 'Utarid bin Udhaynah), Ibn 'Adi said: "munkar al-hadith", al-Daraqutni said: "matruk al-hadith", and al-Hakim and al-Naqqash (as stated in "Lisan al-Mizan") accused him of narrating "mawdu'" (fabricated) hadiths. Musa bin 'Ubaydah al-Rabadhi is agreed to be weak, and al-Dhahabi declared him "wahi" in "Talkhis al-Mustadrak". As for Ibrahim bin Mihran and Mihran bin Dawud, we have not found their biographies.
