English translation
2662. Al-Mughīrah bin Shu'bah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever narrates a Ḥadīth from me which he knows is a lie, then he is one of the liars."[1] (Ṣaḥīh) There are narrations on this topic from 'Alī bin Abī Tālib and Samurah. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīh. Shu'bah reported this Ḥadīth from Al-Ḥakam, from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Lailā, from Samurah from the Prophet ﷺ. Al-A'mash and Ibn Abī Lailā reported it from Al-Ḥakam, from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Lailā, from 'Alī, from the Prophet ﷺ. It is as if the Hadīth of 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Lailā, from Samurah is more correct according to the people of Hadīth. He said: I asked 'Abdullāh bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān, Abū Muḥammad[1] about the Hadīth of the Prophet ﷺ: "Whoever narrates a Hadīth from me which he knows is a lie, then he is one of the liars." I said to him: "If someone reports a Hadīth and he knows that its chain of narration is mistaken, do you fear that he falls under this Hadīth of the Prophet ﷺ, or when people report a Mursal Hadīth, and some of them mention a chain for it, or alter its chain, does this case fall under this Hadīth?" He said: "No. This Hadīth only refers to when a man reports a Hadīth and that Hadīth is not known to have any source from the Prophet ﷺ, yet he narrates it. In this case I fear that he falls under this Hadīth." (Sahīh) [1] Ad-Dārimī.
