the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said—then he related the hadith and added:

“None of their narrations mentions eating or gold, except the narration of Ibn Mushir.”

I say: Ibn Mushir’s name was Ali. Al-Hafiz said: “He was trustworthy, though he narrated some unusual reports after losing his sight.”

Mālik also narrated it in al-Muwatta (2/924) from Nāfi, without mentioning eating or gold. Through Mālik, al-Bukhārī narrated it (4/38). It was also narrated by al-Dārimī (2/121) and Ibn Mājah (3413) from al-Layth ibn Sad, and by Ahmad (6/300–301, 302, 304, 306) through Ayyūb, Abd al-Rahmān al-Sarrāj, Jarīr ibn Hāzim, and Ubayd Allah—meaning Ibn Umar—all of them from Nāfi with the same report, without the two additions. Muslim also narrated it through all these transmitters, adding Mūsā ibn Uqba to them. None of them mentioned the two additions, so they appear to be anomalous. Muslim, however, also narrated it through Uthmān ibn Murra, from Abd Allah ibn Abd al-Rahmān, with the wording: “Whoever drinks from a vessel of gold or silver . . .” Regarding this Uthmān, al-Hafiz said: “There is no objection to him.” And Allah knows best.

117 — (Al-Bukhārī narrated from Hudhayfa, who said: “The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade us to drink from vessels of gold and silver, to eat from them, to wear silk and brocade, and to sit upon it. He said: ‘It is for them (meaning the disbelievers) in this world and for us in the Hereafter.’” Al-Bukhārī.) p. 96.

Authentic. It was narrated by al-Bukhārī (3/503; 4/38, 83, 84), as well as Muslim (6/136), Abū Dāwūd (3723), al-Nasā’ī (2/297), al-Tirmidhī (1/344), al-Dārimī (2/121), Ibn Mājah (3414), and Ahmad (5/385, 390, 396, 397, 398, 400, 404, 408), from Hudhayfa. Al-Tirmidhī said: “A sound and authentic hadith.”
