سنن أبي داود#3917Hasanحَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم سَمِعَ كَلِمَةً فَأَعْجَبَتْهُ فَقَالَ " أَخَذْنَا فَأْلَكَ مِنْ فِيكَ " .
Narrated AbuHurayrah: When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) heard a word, and he liked it, he said: We took your omen from your mouth
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:
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.
