Hadith 746 Part B

setting

Zurara b. Aufa said that Sa'd b. Hisham divorced his wife , and then proceeded to Medina to sell his property , and the rest of the hadith is the same. Sa'd b. Hisham reported : I went to 'Abdullah b. 'Abbas and asked him about the Witr prayer , and the rest of the hadith is the same as recorded in this event. She (Hadrat 'A'isha) said : Who is that Hisham ? I said : Son of 'Amir. She said : What a fine man 'Amir was ! He died as a martyr in the Battle of Uhud. Zurara b. Aufa reported that Sa'd b. Hisham was his neighbour and he informed him that he had divorced his wife and he narrated the hadith like the one transmitted by Sa'd. She ('A'isha) said : Who is Hisham ? He said : The son of 'Amir. She said : What a fine man he was ; he participated in the Battle of Uhud along with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Hakim b. Aflah said : If I ever knew that you do not go to 'A'isha , I would not have informed you about her hadith (So that you would have gone to her and heard it from her orally).
