Arabic (Original)
قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ قَالَ بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَحَادِيثُ تُحَدِّثُهَا وَتَرْوِيهَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا نَجِدُهَا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ تُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ لَهُ حَوْضًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ قَدْ حَدَّثَنَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوَعَدَنَاهُ قَالَ كَذَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّكَ شَيْخٌ قَدْ خَرِفْتَ قَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعَتْهُ أُذُنَايَ وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ وَمَا كَذَبْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Yazid ibn Hayyan said: Zayd ibn Arqam told us in that gathering of his, saying: Ubaydullah ibn Ziyad sent for me, so I went to him, and he said: What are these narrations you narrate and relate from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, which we do not find in the Book of Allah — you narrate that he has a basin in Paradise? He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did indeed narrate it to us and promise it to us. He said: You have lied, but you are an old man who has grown senile. He said: Indeed my ears heard it and my heart retained it from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: Whoever lies against me deliberately, let him take his seat in Hellfire. And I have not lied against the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him.
