English translation

1270. It was reported from 'Ubaid, from Ibn Minjāb, from Qarthā' from Abū Ayyūb from the Prophet ﷺ, that he said: "The doors of the skies are opened for four (Rak'ahs) before Zuhr, without any Taslīm in them." (Ḍa'if) Abū Dāwūd said: It has reached me that Yahyā bin Sa'eed Al-Qaṭṭān said: "Were I to narrate anything from 'Ubaidah (a narrator in the chain), I would have narrated this Hadīth." Abū Dāwūd said: 'Ubaidah is a weak narrator. Abū Dāwūd said: Ibn Minjāb's name is Sahm.

1270 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ ابْنِ مِنْجَابَ، عَنْ قَرْثَعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَرْبَعٌ قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ لَيْسَ فِيهِنَّ تَسْلِيمٌ، تُفْتَحُ لَهُنَّ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: بَلَغَنِي عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانِ، قَالَ: «لَوْ حَدَّثْتُ عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ بِشَيْءٍ لَحَدَّثْتُ عَنْهُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: عُبَيْدَةُ ضَعِيفٌ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «ابْنُ مِنْجَابٍ هُوَ سَهْمٌ»
