حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَالَ « لاَ تَكْتُبُوا عَنِّى وَمَنْ كَتَبَ عَنِّى غَيْرَ الْقُرْآنِ فَلْيَمْحُهُ وَحَدِّثُوا عَنِّى وَلاَ حَرَجَ وَمَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَىَّ - قَالَ هَمَّامٌ أَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ - مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ ».

It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Do not write down what I say, and whoever has written down anything from me other than the Qur'an, let him erase it. Narrate from me, and there is nothing wrong with that, but whoever tells a lie about me" Hammam (a sub narrator) said: "I think he said: 'deliberately"' "let him take his place in the Fire.''
