English translation

1951. Jābir bin Samurah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "That a man should discipline his son is better for him than to have given a Ṣā' in charity." (Ḍa'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Gharīb. And Nāṣih bin Al-'Alā' Al-Kūfī is not strong according to the people of Ḥadīth, and we do not know of this Ḥadīth except from this route. There is another Shaikh named Nāṣih, from Al-Baṣrah, who reports from 'Ammār bin Abī 'Ammār, and others, and he is more reliable than this one.

١٩٥١ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ يَعْلَى ، عَنْ ‌نَاصِحٍ ، عَنْ ‌سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ ‌جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَأَنْ يُؤَدِّبَ الرَّجُلُ وَلَدَهُ» خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقَ بِصَاعٍ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَنَاصِحٌ هُوَ: ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ كُوفِيٌّ، لَيْسَ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ بِالْقَوِيِّ، وَلَا يُعْرَفُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ. وَنَاصِحٌ شَيْخٌ آخَرُ بَصْرِيٌّ، يَرْوِي عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ وَغَيْرِهِ وَهُوَ أَثْبَتُ مِنْ هَذَا.
