حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَنَحْنُ بِبَيْرُوتَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ
مَنِ ادَّعَى إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ أَوِ انْتَمَى إِلَى غَيْرِ مَوَالِيهِ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ الْمُتَتَابِعَةُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

What scholars said about it
In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.
- Shafiʿī
جنح الشافعي في الأم إلى أن هذا المتن متواتر فقال وجدنا أهل الفتيا ومن حفظنا عنهم من أهل العلم بالمغازي من قريش وغيرهم لا يختلفون في أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال عام الفتح لا وصية لوارث ويؤثرون عمن حفظوه عنه ممن لقوه من أهل العلم فكان نقل كافة عن كافة فهو أقوى من نقل واحد
machine translationAl-Shāfiʿī inclined in al-Umm to the view that this text is mass-transmitted (mutawātir), and said: "We found the people of legal rulings, and those of the people of knowledge of the military expeditions (maghāzī) among Quraysh and others whom we have memorized from, not disagreeing that the Prophet ﷺ said in the year of the Conquest: 'There is no bequest for an heir.' And they transmit it from those of the people of knowledge whom they met and from whom they memorized it. So it is a transmission of the many from the many, and it is stronger than the transmission of a single person."
