Sunan Abi Dawud 3458

سنن أبي داود#3458Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ الْجَرْجَرَائِيُّ، قَالَ مَرْوَانُ الْفَزَارِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ كَانَ أَبُو زُرْعَةَ إِذَا بَايَعَ رَجُلاً خَيَّرَهُ قَالَ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ خَيِّرْنِي وَيَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ لاَ يَفْتَرِقَنَّ اثْنَانِ إِلاَّ عَنْ تَرَاضٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Narrated Yahya b. Ayyub: When Abu Zur'ah made a business transaction with a man, he gave him the right of option. He then would tell him: Give me the right of option (to annul the bargain). He said: I heard AbuHurayrah say: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Two people must separate only by mutual consent

Scholarly Authentication

The label above is the grade most of these scholars gave, each scholar counted once — one dissenting opinion no longer speaks for all of them. If any scholar calls a narration fabricated, that verdict is shown instead, whatever the others say. When they judged only its chain of narrators (“Isnaad”), the label says “Sound chain”. Each scholar's own wording:

Al-AlbaniHasan Sahih
Shuaib Al ArnautSahih Lighairihi
Zubair Ali ZaiIsnaad Hasan

Our source also lists this ruling under Muhammad Muhyi Al-Din Abdul Hamid, the editor of the printed edition it was taken from. It is al-Albani's ruling printed again, so it is counted once.
