Arabic Text
قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ قَالَ بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَحَادِيثُ تُحَدِّثُهَا وَتَرْوِيهَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا نَجِدُهَا فِي كِتَ
ابِ اللَّهِ تُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ لَهُ حَوْضًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ قَدْ حَدَّثَنَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوَعَدَنَاهُ قَالَ كَذَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّكَ شَيْخٌ قَدْ خَرِفْتَ قَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعَتْهُ أُذُنَايَ وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ وَمَا كَذَبْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

English Translation
Yazīd ibn Ḥayyān narrated: Zayd ibn Arqam told us in that same gathering: ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Ziyād sent for me, so I went to him. He said, 'What are these ḥadīths you narrate and transmit from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that we do not find in the Book of Allah? You claim that he has a Pool (Ḥawḍ) in Paradise!' Zayd said, 'the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told us this and promised it to us.' He said, 'You are lying! Rather, you are an old man who has gone senile.' Zayd said, 'My ears heard it and my heart retained it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Whoever deliberately lies about me, let him take his seat in the Fire.' He said: 'I shall not punish you for this.'
