3110 - Ishaq ibn Ibrahim informed us, saying: Jarir narrated to us, from Suhayl, from Safwan Abu Yazid, from al-Qa'qa' ibn al-Lajlaj, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Dust in the path of Allah and the smoke of Hell will never gather together in the belly of a servant, and miserliness and faith will never gather together in the heart of a servant."

============================================
Both are from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih, with the same chain.

It was also narrated with similar wording by Ahmad (8816), (8922), (9163), and (9342), Muslim (1891): (130), Abu Dawud (2495), and Ibn Hibban (4665) via multiple chains, from al-'Ala' ibn 'Abd al-Rahman, from his father, from Abu Hurayrah, with the same chain.

His statement therein: "They will never gather together in the belly of a believer: dust in the path of Allah and the scorching heat of Hell" was mentioned in the preceding hadith, and it is authentic.

Al-Sindi said: His statement: "They will never gather together in the Fire" — the subject is omitted, i.e., "two things that will never gather together," or it follows the dialect of "akaluni al-baraghith" [where a plural verb agrees with a plural subject]. On either interpretation, his statement: "a Muslim who killed an unbeliever" implies a coordinated element, i.e., "and the unbeliever whom he killed." His statement: "then he remained steadfast and drew near" indicates that it is conditional upon not deviating afterward. And "the scorching heat of Hell" means the effect of Hell's scorching heat, from its heat.

(1) The first part of it is authentic, the second is good, and this chain is weak. Al-Qa'qa' ibn al-Lajlaj was declared unknown by al-Mizzi and Ibn Hajar, and al-Dhahabi mentioned him in "al-Mizan" 1/506 under Husayn ibn al-Lajlaj and said: "It is not known who he is." End quote. There is disagreement over his name: it is said he is Khalid ibn al-Lajlaj, as in the following narration; it is said he is Husayn ibn al-Lajlaj, as in narrations (3113) and (3114); and it is said he is Abu al-'Ala' ibn al-Lajlaj, as in narration (3115). End quote. Safwan ibn Abi Yazid — and it is said: ibn Yazid, and it is said: ibn Sulaym — is acceptable. The rest of his narrators are trustworthy. Jarir is Ibn 'Abd al-Hamid, and Suhayl is Ibn Abi Salih. It is in "al-Sunan al-Kubra" under number (4303).

There is disagreement concerning him regarding Suhayl ibn Abi Salih:
Jarir narrated it, as in this narration; Yazid ibn al-Had, as will come in narration (3112); Wuhaib ibn Khalid, as in "al-Tarikh al-Kabir" 4/307; and Khalid ibn 'Abd Allah al-Wasiti, as in Sahih Ibn Hibban (3251) — all four of them narrated from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih, from Safwan ibn Abi Yazid, from =
