Sunan Abi Dawud #1512
كتاب الوتر
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ مُرَّةَ، بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ «وَيَسِّرِ الْهُدَى إِلَىَّ». وَلَمْ يَقُلْ «هُدَاىَ». قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ سَمِعَ سُفْيَانُ مِنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ قَالُوا ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ حَدِيثًا.
The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by 'Amr b. Murrah through a different chain of narrators to the same effect. This version adds:
“And make right guidance easy for me.” The narrator did not say: “my right guidance”.
Abu Dawud said: Sufyan heard eighteen traditions from 'Amr b. Murrah.
