حَدَّثَنِي الْفَضْلُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي خَلِيفَةُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى غَالِبِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ فَجَعَلَ يُمْلِي عَلَيَّ حَدَّثَنِي مَكْحُولٌ حَدَّثَنِي مَكْحُولٌ فَأَخَذَهُ الْبَوْلُ فَقَامَ فَنَظَرْتُ فِي الْكُرَّاسَةِ فَإِذَا فِيهَا حَدَّثَنِي أَبَانٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ وَأَبَانُ عَنْ فُلَانٍ فَتَرَكْتُهُ وَقُمْتُ [قَالَ] وَسَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيَّ يَقُولُا رَأَيْتُ فِي كِتَابِ عَفَّانَ حَدِيثَ هِشَامٍ أَبِي الْمِقْدَامِ حَدِيثَ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ هِشَامٌ حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ فُلَانٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ [قَالَ] قُلْتُ لِعَفَّانَ إِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ هِشَامٌ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا ابْتُلِيَ مِنْ قِبَلِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ كَانَ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ثُمَّ ادَّعَى بَعْدُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ

It was narrated that Khalifah bin Musa said: "I entered upon Ghalib bin 'Ubaidullah and he started to dictate to me: 'Makhul narrated to me,' 'Makhul narrated to me.' Then he needed to urinate, so he got up, and I looked at his notebook and in it (was written): "Aban narrated to me from Anas,' 'Aban narrated from so-and-so.' So I got up and left." He (Muslim) said: And I heard Al-Hasan bin 'Ali Al-Hulwani say: "I saw in the book of 'Affan a Hadith of Hisham Abu Al-Miqdam - a Hadith of 'Umar bin 'Abdul-'Aziz. Hisham said: 'A man called Yahya bin so-and-so narrated to me, from Muhammad bin Ka'b.' I said to 'Affan: 'They say that Hisham heard it from Muhammad bin Ka'b.' He said: 'His problem started with this Hadith. He used to say: "Yahya narrated to me from Muhammad,' then after that he claimed that he had heard it from Muhammad."'
