Sunan Abi Dawud, 2695

Abu Talhah رضي الله عنه a dit : « Quand le Messager d’Allah ﷺ l’emportait sur un peuple, il restait trois nuits sur le terrain. » Ibn Al Muthanna a dit : « Quand il l’emportait sur un peuple, il aimait rester trois nuits sur le terrain. » Abu Dawud a dit : Yahya bin Sa’id contestait ce récit car il ne venait pas de ses premiers récits, sa mémoire ayant décliné à quarante-cinq ans. Il a rapporté ce récit à la fin de sa vie. Abu Dawud a dit : On dit que Waki’ a reçu ce récit de lui quand sa mémoire était déjà altérée

Abu Talhah said “When the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) prevailed on any people, he stayed three nights in the field. Ibn Al Muthanna said “When he prevailed over people, he liked to stay three nights in the field.” Abu Dawud said “Yahya bin Sa’id used to object to this tradition for this is not from his early traditions because his memory was spoiled at the age of forty five. He narrated this tradition in the last days of his age.” Abu Dawud said “ It is said that Waki ‘ recived this tradition from him when his memory was spoiled.”
