Abu Dawood
Sahih (Al-Albani)
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ ‏‏ حَتَّى تَرَوْنِي قَدْ خَرَجْتُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ ‏"‏ قَدْ خَرَجْتُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ إِلاَّ مَعْمَرٌ ‏.‏ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ لَمْ يَقُلْ فِيهِ ‏"‏ قَدْ خَرَجْتُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏"
This tradition has also been reported through a different chain of narrators in a similar way. This version says:
"Until you see me that I have come out" .

Abu dawud said: No one except Ma'mar has narrated the words "that I have come out" . And the version transmitted by Ibn "Uyainah from Ma'mar does not mention the words "that I have come out" .
