English translation

2695. It was reported from Abū Talhah, who said: "After being victorious over any people, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would stay at the battlefield for three nights." (In his version) Ibn Al-Muthannah said: "If he was victorious over any people, he liked to stay in their battlefield for three days." (Sahih) Abū Dāwūd said: Yahyā bin Sa'eed used to criticize this Hadith because it is not among the early Hadith of Sa'eed, since his memory became distorted in the year forty — five, and this Hadith was not narrated except later than that. Abū Dāwūd said: It is said that Wakī' reported from him after he became mixed up (in narrating).

Arabic text

2695 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا غَلَبَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ أَقَامَ بِالْعَرْصَةِ ثَلَاثًا» قَالَ ابْنُ المُثَنَّى: «إِذَا غَلَبَ قَوْمًا أَحَبَّ أَنْ يُقِيمَ بِعَرْصَتِهِمْ ثَلَاثًا». قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «كَانَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ يَطْعَنُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ قَدِيمِ حَدِيثِ سَعِيدٍ لِأَنَّهُ تَغَيَّرَ سَنَةَ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ، وَلَمْ يُخْرِجْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِلَّا بِأَخَرَةٍ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «يُقَالُ إِنَّ وَكِيعًا حَمَلَ عَنْهُ فِي تَغَيُّرِهِ»
