Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

Muslim transmitted it through ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd.
It is also found with another chain: al-Zubaydī, from al-Zuhrī, from Isḥāq, the client of al-Mughīra, from Ubayy. (1)

Abū Ṣāliḥ al-Kātib related: Mūsā ibn ʿUlayy narrated to us from his father that ʿUmar delivered a sermon at al-Jābiya, saying:
“Whoever wishes to ask about the Qur’an, let him come to Ubayy ibn Kaʿb; whoever wishes to ask about the prescribed shares of inheritance, let him go to Zayd; whoever wishes to ask about jurisprudence, let him go to Muʿādh; and whoever wishes to ask about matters of wealth, let him come to me, for Allah has made me its guardian and distributor.” (2)
Al-Wāqidī reported the same narration from Mūsā as well.

Abū Bakr ibn ʿAyyāsh—through ʿĀṣim, from Zir—said:
“I came to Madinah and visited Ubayy. I said, ‘May Allah have mercy on you; show me kindness’—for he was a man with a streak of sternness. I then asked him about the Night of Decree, and he replied, ‘It is the twenty-seventh night.’” (3)

Sufyān al-Thawrī—through Aslam al-Minqarī, from ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abzā, from his father—reported that Ubayy ibn Kaʿb said:
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me, ‘I have been commanded to recite the Qur’an to you.’ I asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah, was I mentioned to you by name?’ He replied, ‘Yes.’”
I asked Ubayy, “Did that delight you?”
He answered, “Why should it not, when He—Exalted is He—says: ‘Say: In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy, in that let them rejoice.’ [Yūnus 58]” (4)

(1) Reported by al-Tabarani, no. 537. The complete wording, transmitted from Ibn Kab al-Ansari, states that the Messenger of Allah said: “The Hour will not come until the Euphrates uncovers a mountain of gold. People will fight over it, and nine-tenths of them will be killed.” (2) Abu Salih is Abd Allah ibn Salih, the scribe of al-Layth; he was weak in memory, whereas the remaining transmitters are trustworthy. (3) Reported by Abd Allah, the son of Imam Ahmad, in the Zawaid al-Musnad, 5/132; its chain is sound (hasan). (4) Reported by Ahmad, 5/122–123, and by Abu Nuaym in Hilyat al-awliya, 1/251.
أَخْرَجَهُ: مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ طَرِيْقِ عَبْدِ الحَمِيْدِ. وَلَهُ إِسْنَادٌ آخَرُ، وَهُوَ: الزُّبَيْدِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ مَوْلَى المُغِيْرَةِ، عَنْ أُبَيٍّ (١) . أَبُو صَالِحٍ الكَاتِبُ: حَدَّثَنَا مُوْسَى بنُ عُلَيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِيْهِ: أَنَّ عُمَرَ خَطَبَ بِالجَابِيَةِ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ عَنِ القُرْآنِ، فَلْيَأْتِ أُبَيَّ بنَ كَعْبٍ، وَمَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ عَنِ الفَرَائِضِ، فَلْيَأْتِ زَيْداً، وَمَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ عَنِ الفِقْهِ، فَلْيَأْتِ مُعَاذاً، وَمَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ عَنِ المَالِ، فَلْيَأْتِنِي، فَإِنَّ اللهَ جَعَلَنِي خَازِناً وَقَاسِماً (٢) . وَرَوَاهُ: الوَاقِدِيُّ، عَنْ مُوْسَى أَيْضاً. أَبُو بَكْرٍ بنُ عَيَّاشٍ: عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرٍّ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ المَدِيْنَةَ، فَأَتَيْتُ أُبَيّاً، فَقُلْتُ: يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ! اخْفِضْ لِي جَنَاحَكَ - وَكَانَ امْرَءاً فِيْهِ شَرَاسَةٌ -. فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ لَيْلَةِ القَدْرِ، فَقَالَ: لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِيْنَ (٣) . سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ: عَنْ أَسْلَمَ المِنْقَرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بنِ أَبْزَى، عَنْ أَبِيْهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ أُبَيُّ بنُ كَعْبٍ: قَالَ لِي رَسُوْلُ اللهِ ﷺ: (أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ القُرْآنَ) . قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ! وَسُمِّيْتُ لَكَ؟ قَالَ: (نَعَمْ) . قُلْتُ لأُبِيٍّ: فَرِحْتَ بِذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا يَمْنَعُنِي وَهُوَ تَعَالَى يَقُوْلُ: ﴿قُلْ بِفَضْلِ اللهِ وَبِرَحْمَتِهِ فَبِذَلِكَ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا﴾ [يُوْنُسُ: ٥٨] (٤) .
