بينا أنا مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم في حير لأبي طالب، أشرف علينا أبو طالب، فبصر به النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: يا عم ألا تنزل فتصلى معنا؟ قال: ابن أخي، إني لأعلم أنك على حق، ولكني أكره أن أسجد فتعلوني إستي. ولكن انزل يا جعفر فصل جناح ابن عمك. فنزل جعفر، فصلى عن يسار النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم. فلما قضى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم صلاته، التفت إلى جعفر، فقال: أما إن الله قد وصلك بجناحين تطير بهما في الجنة، كما وصلت جناح ابن عمك.
(‘Ali said,) “While I was with the Prophet salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam in a garden of Abu Talib, he (i.e. Abu Talib) looked over us. The Prophet salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam noticed him and said, ‘O my uncle, will you not come down and pray salah with us?’ He said, ‘My nephew, I know very well that you are upon the truth. However, I do not like to prostrate because it will cause my anus to be raised (i.e. in prostration) above me. However, go down, O Jafar, and connect (yourself) to your cousin.’ Jafar went down and prayed to the right of the Prophet salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. When the Prophet salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam completed his salah, he turned to Jafar and said, ‘Verily Allah has connected two wings to you by which you can fly in Jannat, just as you connected to the side of your cousin.’”
Al Khatib and others narrate this hadith — from al Samti Muhammad ibn Hassan — Saif ibn Muhammad ibn Ukht Sufyan informed us — from Sufyan — from Salamah ibn Kuhayl — from Habbah — from Juwayn — from ‘Ali…[1]
Ibn ‘Adi said that this hadith is batil (false).
Saif is a kadhdhab (liar) and a wadda’ (fabricator).
Al Suyuti—and Ibn ‘Iraq followed suit—mentioned this hadith in his work on fabrications.[2]
