2629. 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Indeed Islām began as something strange and it will return to being strange as it began. So Tūba is for the strangers." (Sahih) There are narrations on this topic from Sa'd, Ibn 'Umar, Jābir, Anas and 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb Sahih as a narration of Ibn Mas'ūd, and we only know of it as a narration of Hafṣ bin Ghiyāth from Al-'Amash. And Abū Al-Aḥḡwa's name is 'Awf bin Mālik bin Naḏlah Al-Jushamī (narrators in the chain), and Ḥafṣ was the only one who narrated it.

٢٦٢٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ ، عَنِ ‌الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ الْإِسْلَامَ بَدَأَ غَرِيبًا» وَسَيَعُودُ غَرِيبًا كَمَا بَدَأَ، فَطُوبَى لِلْغُرَبَاءِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَجَابِرٍ، وَأَنَسٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، إِنَّمَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ. وَأَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ اسْمُهُ عَوْفُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ الْجُشَمِيُّ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ حَفْصٌ.
