Arabic text

234 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْقُشَيْرِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَلَا لِيُبَلِّغِ الشَّاهِدُ الْغَائِبَ»

Commentary

The expression 'Those who are absent' also includes those who, being present somewhere else at that time, were not able to hear the Prophet's word first hand. It also includes those that were to come after that period, but had the benefit of hearing the words of the Prophet ﷺ from the lips of the Companions.
