حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ وَحَجَّاجٌ حَدَّثَنِي شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ لَاحِقِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ وَقَالَ حَجَّاجٌ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مِجْلَزٍ قَالَ قَعَدَ رَجُلٌ فِي وَسْطِ حَلْقَةٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ قَعَدَ فِي وَسْطِ الْحَلْقَةِ عَلَى لِسَانِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ قَعَدَ فِي وَسْطِ الْحَلْقَةِ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ حُذَيْفَةَ.

Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us: Shu'bah and Hajjaj narrated to us — Shu'bah narrated to me — from Qatadah, from Abu Mijlaz Lahiq ibn Humayd — and Hajjaj said: I heard Abu Mijlaz say: A man sat in the middle of a circle of people, so Hudhayfah said, "Cursed is he who sits in the middle of the circle," on the authority of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said, "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed whoever sits in the middle of the circle." Hajjaj said: Shu'bah said: Abu Mijlaz did not meet Hudhayfah.
