32 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ - حَسِبْتُهُ قَالَ مُتَعَمِّدًا - فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ»

Commentary
31 & 32 The narrator (probably Anas bin Mālik ﷺ) doubts whether or not the Prophet ﷺ also spoke the word 'Muhammad'. There is no such doubt about the rest of the words of Hadith. It is the proof of the narrator's integrity that he clearly pointed out his doubt about the authenticity of a word in the Hadith. Other narrations of the Hadith confirm that the word 'Muhammad' was part of the Hadith. It is, therefore, not right to doubt its authenticity by the transmitter of the report.
