English Translation
Ahmad ibn Mansur narrated to us, he said: Aswad ibn Amir narrated to us, he said: Hammad narrated to us, from Humayd, from al-Hasan, from Abu Bakrah, may Allah be well pleased with him, that a man from the people of Persia came to the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, and the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, said to him: "Indeed, my Lord has killed your lord" - meaning Kisra [Chosroes]. He said: Then it was said to him - meaning the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him - after that, that he [Kisra] had appointed his daughter as his successor. He said: "A people who appoint a woman as their ruler will never succeed." Al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Azim narrated to us, he said: Habban narrated to us, he said: Ja'far ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from Kathir Abu Sahl - a trustworthy and reliable narrator - from al-Hasan, from Abu Bakrah, from the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, with a similar meaning. Abu Bakr [al-Bazzar] said: This statement has been narrated from the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, through multiple routes, and we do not know anyone who narrated it except Abu Bakrah through this route.
