وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُسْلِمٍ - كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ . نَحْوَهُ . وَفِي حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ وَمَا تَرَكْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنَ الْعِيِّ .
Yahya b. Sa'id Narrated from:

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 935b
This narration is a supporting version of the previous report from Aisha about the women of Jafar and their lamentation. It says the hadith was narrated by Yahya b. Said with the same chain in a similar form. The change mentioned in this version is the wording that the man did not spare the Messenger of Allah the botheration. Because this report is mainly a same-chain support with a small wording change, the explanation should remain limited. It confirms that lamentation was not approved and that the man was blamed for not carrying out the Prophet's order properly. For readers searching for the Jafar women lamenting hadith, this version helps show how the report was transmitted with close wording.
What we learn from this hadith
- The narration supports the same report about forbidding lamentation.
- Small wording differences can appear while the main meaning stays the same.
- Aisha's criticism shows the weight of not carrying out the Prophet's instruction.
