Muwatta Malik #1617
Hudud
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ يُقَالُ لَهُ هَزَّالٌ
" يَا هَزَّالُ لَوْ سَتَرْتَهُ بِرِدَائِكَ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَكَ " . قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فِيهِ يَزِيدُ بْنُ نُعَيْمِ بْنِ هَزَّالٍ الأَسْلَمِيِّ فَقَالَ يَزِيدُ هَزَّالٌ جَدِّي وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ حَقٌّ .
Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn al-Musayyab
said, "I have heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said to a man from the Aslam tribe called Hazzal,
'Hazzal, had you veiled him with your cloak, it would have been better
for you.' "
Yahya ibn Said said, "I related this hadith in an
assembly among whom was Yazid ibn Nuaym ibn Hazzal al-Aslami. Yazid
said, 'Hazzal was my grandfather. This hadith is true.' "
