Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حُسَيْنٍ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَمَرَّ بِمَكَانٍ فَحَادَ عَنْهُ فَسُئِلَ لِمَ فَعَلْتَ فَقَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَلَ هَذَا فَفَعَلْتُ.
English Translation
Yazid ibn Harun told us: Sufyan — meaning Ibn Husayn — informed us, from al-Hakam, from Mujahid, who said: We were with Ibn Umar on a journey, and he passed by a place and turned away from it. He was asked: Why did you do that? He said: I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, do this, so I did it.
