Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو فُلَانَةَ كَذَا قَالَ أَبِي لَمْ يُسَمِّهِ عَلَى عَمْدٍ و حَدَّثَنَاه غَيْرُهُ فَسَمَّاهُ يَعْنِي أَبَا حُنَيْفَةَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ أَتَاهُ اذْهَبْ فَإِنَّ الدَّالَّ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ كَفَاعِلِهِ.
English Translation
Ishaq ibn Yusuf told us: Abu Fulanah informed us - thus my father said, deliberately not naming him, though another narrated it to us and named him, meaning Abu Hanifah - from Alqamah ibn Marthad, from Sulayman ibn Buraydah, from his father: that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to a man who came to him: Go, for the one who guides to good is like the one who does it.
