Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ أَبِي نَافِعٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا سَبَقَ إِلَّا فِي خُفٍّ أَوْ نَصْلٍ أَوْ حَافِرٍ قَالَ أَبِي و حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ وَيَزِيدُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ أَبِي نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي أَحْمَدَ عَنِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِثْلَهُ.
English Translation
Yahya told us, from Ibn Abi Dhi'b, from Nafi' ibn Abi Nafi', who said: I heard Abu Hurayrah say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no prize except in camel-racing, archery, or horse-racing." [Ahmad's father] said: Waki' and Yazid also told us, from Ibn Abi Dhi'b, from Nafi' ibn Abi Nafi', the freed slave of Abu Ahmad, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), similarly.
