حَدَّثَنَا قَطَنُ بْنُ نُسَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ الْأَعْرَجُ الْمَكِّيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذَكَرَ الْإِفْكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَكَشَفَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَعُوذُ بِالسَّمِيعِ الْعَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ جَاءُوا بِالإِفْكِ عُصْبَةٌ مِنْكُمْ سورة النور آية 11 الْآيَةَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ مُنْكَرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ جَمَاعَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَمْ يَذْكُرُوا هَذَا الْكَلَامَ عَلَى هَذَا الشَّرْحِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَمْرُ الِاسْتِعَاذَةِ مِنْ كَلَامِ حُمَيْدٍ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم sat and unveiled his face and said: “I take refuge in Allah, All-Hearing, All-Knowing from the accursed devil. Lo! They who spread the slander are a gang among you. ” Abu Dawud said: This is a rejected (munkar) tradition. A group of narrators have reported this tradition from al-Zuhri; but did not mention this detail. I am afraid the phrase concerning “seeking refuge in Allah” is the statement of Humaid.
