أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شُعْبَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَأَنَّ أُمَّهُ مَاتَتْ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ سَقْيُ الْمَاءِ فَتِلْكَ سِقَايَةُ سَعْدٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ
English Translation
Telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Ibrahim bin Al Hasan] dari [Hajjaj] ia berkata; aku mendengar [Syu'bah] menceritakan dari [Qatadah] berkata; aku mendengar [Al Hasan] menceritakan dari [Sa'd bin 'Ubadah], bahwa ibunya meninggal kemudian berkata, "Wahai Rasulullah, sedekah apakah yang paling utama?" Beliau menjawab: "Memberi minum air." Itulah pemberian minum Sa'd di Madinah.
About Sunan an-Nasa'i
Born
215 AH / 829 CE — Nasa, Turkmenistan
Died
303 AH / 915 CE
Imam an-Nasa'i applied the strictest conditions of all Sunan compilers. He first wrote a larger collection (as-Sunan al-Kubra) then condensed it into al-Mujtaba. He was particularly rigorous in identifying weaknesses in narrator chains, resulting in a collection of very high reliability.
An-Nasa'i's conditions for accepting narrators were stricter than those of Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi, making al-Mujtaba one of the most critically refined of the Sunan collections.
