Hadith Number: 562
اخبرناه احمد بن سلمان الفقيه ببغداد، حدثنا إسماعيل بن إسحاق القاضي، حدثنا إسماعيل بن ابي اويس، حدثنا ابي، عن شرحبيل بن سعد، عن عويم بن ساعدة الانصاري ثم العجلاني: ان النبي ﷺ قال لاهل قباء: إن الله قد احسن الثناء عليكم في الطهور، وقال: ﴿فيه رجال يحبون ان يتطهروا﴾" حتى انقضت الآية، فقال لهم:"ما هذا الطهور؟" [فقالوا: ما نعلم شيئا إلا انه كان لنا جيران من اليهود، وكانوا يغسلون ادبارهم من الغائط، فغسلنا كما غسلوا] (1).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uwaym bin Sa'idah al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the people of Quba: "Allah Almighty has praised you most excellently in the matter of purification," and he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "In it are men who love to purify themselves," until the verse was completed. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked them: "What is this purification?" They said: "We know of nothing except that we had Jewish neighbours who used to wash their private parts after relieving themselves, so we too began washing as they did."
تخریج الحدیث: «والحديث إسناده ضعيف بمَرّة، إسماعيل وأبوه وشرحبيل بن سعد فيهم مقال، وأضعفهم شرحبيل، وقال الحافظ ابن حجر في "التهذيب": في سماعه من عويم بن ساعدة نظر» [ترقيم الرساله 562] [ترقيم الشركة 557]

Hadith-science notes and terminology
Important point: The text between the square brackets [ ] was blank in the original manuscripts; we completed it from "Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah" (83), where it is narrated via Isma'il bin Abi Uways, and it is the same in other sources as well.
(1) ما بين المعقوفين مكانه بياض في الأصول، واستدركناه من "صحيح ابن خزيمة" (83) حيث رواه من طريق إسماعيل بن أبي أويس، وهو كذلك في غيره من المصادر.
Grading: The chain of this hadith is very weak.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Isma'il bin Abi Uways, his father (Abu Uways 'Abd Allah bin 'Abd Allah) and Shurahbil bin Sa'd have all been criticised, the weakest of them being Shurahbil. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar wrote in "Tahdhib al-Tahdhib" that Shurahbil's having heard from 'Uwaym bin Sa'idah is questionable.

Reference / Source: Imam Ahmad narrated it (24/15485) through Husayn bin Muhammad, from Abu Uways, with this same chain.
وأخرجه أحمد 24/ (15485) عن حسين بن محمد، عن أبي أويس، بهذا الإسناد.
Note / Clarification: In this connection, see the narration of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), which will come later at no. (684).
وانظر حديث ابن عباس الآتي برقم (684).
