What scholars said about it

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    الحجاج مدلس وقد اضطرب فيه فتارة رواه كذا وتارة رواه بزيادة شداد بن أوس بعد والد أبي المليح أخرجه ابن أبي شيبة وابن أبي حاتم في العلل والطبراني في الكبير وتارة رواه عن مكحول عن أبي أيوب أخرجه أحمد وذكره ابن أبي حاتم في العلل وحكى عن أبيه أنه خطأ من حجاج أو من الراوي عنه عبد الواحد بن زياد وقال البيهقي هو ضعيف منقطع وقال ابن عبد البر في التمهيد هذا الحديث يدور على حجاج بن أرطاة وليس بمن يحتج به

    machine translationḤajjāj is a concealer of defects in transmission (mudallis) and he was inconsistent (iḍṭaraba) in it. At times he narrated it in this way, and at times he narrated it with the addition of Shaddād b. Aws after the father of Abū al-Malīḥ; Ibn Abī Shaybah, Ibn Abī Ḥātim in al-ʿIlal, and al-Ṭabarānī in al-Kabīr recorded it. At other times he narrated it from Makḥūl from Abū Ayyūb; Aḥmad recorded it, and Ibn Abī Ḥātim mentioned it in al-ʿIlal and related from his father that it is an error, either from Ḥajjāj or from the narrator from him, ʿAbd al-Wāḥid b. Ziyād. Al-Bayhaqī said: it is weak (ḍaʿīf) and disconnected (munqaṭiʿ). Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr said in al-Tamhīd: this hadith revolves around Ḥajjāj b. Arṭāh, and he is not one who is to be relied upon as evidence.
