Aur Imam Hasan Basri aur Sufyan Thawri aur Malik ne shagird ke padhne ko jaaiz kaha hai aur ba’z ne ustaad ke saamne padhne ki daleel Zimaam bin Tha’labah ki Hadees se li hai. Us ne Nabi-e-Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam se arz kiya tha ke kya Allah ne Aap ko yeh hukm farmaaya hai ke hum log Namaz padha karen. Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya haan. To yeh (goya) Nabi-e-Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ke saamne padhna hi thehra. Zimaam ne phir jaa kar apni qaum se yeh bayan kiya to unhon ne us ko jaaiz rakha. Aur Imam Malik ne dastaweez se daleel li jo qaum ke saamne padh kar sunaayi jaati hai. Woh kehte hain ke hum ko falaan shakhs ne dastaweez par gawah kiya aur padhne waala padh kar ustaad ko sunaata hai phir kehta hai mujh ko falaan ne padhaaya.

Hum se Muhammed bin Salaam ne bayan kiya, kaha hum se Muhammed bin Hasan Waasiti ne bayan kiya, kaha unhon ne ’Awf se, unhon ne Hasan Basri se, unhon ne kaha aalim ke saamne padhne mein koi qabaahat nahi. Aur hum se Ubaidullah bin Musa ne bayan kiya, unhon ne Sufyan Thawri se suna, woh kehte the jab koi shakhs Muhaddis ko Hadees padh kar sunaaye to kuch qabaahat nahi agar yun kahe ke us ne mujh se bayan kiya. Aur main ne Abu ’Aasim se suna, woh Imam Malik aur Sufyan Thawri ka qaul bayan karte the ke aalim ko padh kar sunaana aur aalim ka shaagirdon ke saamne padhna dono barabar hain.

Hum se Abdullah bin Yousuf ne bayan kiya, kaha hum se Laith ne bayan kiya, unhon ne Sa’eed Maqburi se, unhon ne Shareek bin Abdullah bin Abi Namir se, unhon ne Anas bin Malik se suna ke ek baar hum Masjid mein Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ke saath baithe huwe the, itne mein ek shakhs oont par sawaar ho kar aaya aur oont ko Masjid mein bitha kar baandh diya. Phir poochne laga (bhaaiyo) tum logon mein Muhammed (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) kaun se hain. Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam us waqt logon mein takya lagaaye baithe huwe the. hum ne kaha (Hazrat) Muhammed (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) yeh sufaid rang waale buzurg hain jo takya lagaaye huwe tashreef farmaa hain. Tab woh Aap se mukhatab huwa ke aye Abdul Muttalib ke farzand! Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya. Kaho main aap ki baat sun raha hun. Woh bola main Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam se kuch deeni baatein daryaaft karna chaahta hun aur zara sakhti se bhi poochunga to Aap apne dil mein bura na maaniyega. Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya nahi jo tumhaara dil chaahe poocho. Tab us ne kaha ke main Aap ko Aap ke Rabb aur agle logon ke Rabb Tabaraka-wa-Ta’ala ki qasam de kar poochta hun kya Aap ko Allah ne duniya ke sab logon ki taraf Rasool bana kar bheja hai. Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya haan ya mere Allah! Phir us ne kaha main Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ko Allah ki qasam deta hun kya Allah ne Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ko raat din mein paanch namazain padhne ka hukm farmaaya hai. Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya haan ya mere Allah! Phir kehne laga main Aap ko Allah ki qasam de kar poochta hun ke kya Allah ne Aap ko yeh hukm diya hai ke saal bhar mein is maheena Ramadhan ke roze rakho. Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya haan ya mere Allah! Phir kehne laga main Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ko Allah ki qasam de kar poochta hun ke kya Allah ne Aap ko yeh hukm diya hai ke Aap hum mein se jo maaldaar log hain un se Zakat wusool kar ke hamaare mohtaajon mein baant diya karen. Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ne farmaaya haan ya mere Allah! Tab woh shakhs kehne laga jo hukm Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam Allah ke paas se laaye hain, main un par imaan laaya aur main apni qaum ke logon ka jo yahan nahi aaye hain bheja huwa (tehqeeq-e-haal ke liye) aaya hun. Mera naam Zimaam bin Tha’labah hai, main bani Sa’d bin Bakr ke khaandaan se hun. Is Hadees ko (Laith ki tarah) Musa aur ’Ali bin Abdul Hameed ne Sulaiman se riwayat kiya, unhon ne saabit se, unhon ne Anas se, unhon ne yahi mazmoon Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam se naql kiya hai.
