حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ الْفَقِيهُ أَنْبَأَ أَبُو حَامِدٍ الشَّرْقِيُّ وَمَكِّيُّ بْنُ عَبْدَانَ قَالَا ثَنَا أَبُو الْأَزْهَرِ ثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ ثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْحَاقَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي أَنَسٍ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ
يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَاللَّهِ مَا نَدْرِي هَذَا الْيَمَانِيُّ أَعْلَمُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمْ أَنْتُمْ؟ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا لَمْ يَقُلْ يَعْنِي أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ طَلْحَةُ «وَاللَّهِ مَا يَشُكُّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا لَمْ نَسْمَعْ وَعَلِمَ مَا لَمْ نَعْلَمْ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَوْمًا أَغْنِيَاءَ لَنَا بُيُوتٌ وَأَهْلُونَ كُنَّا نَأْتِي نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ وَكَانَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ مِسْكِينًا لَا مَالَ لَهُ وَلَا أَهْلَ وَلَا وَلَدَ إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ يَدُهُ مَعَ يَدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَ يَدُورُ مَعَهُ حَيْثُمَا دَارَ وَلَا يَشُكُّ أَنَّهُ قَدْ عَلِمَ مَا لَمْ نَعْلَمْ وَسَمِعَ مَا لَمْ نَسْمَعْ وَلَمْ يَتَّهِمْهُ أَحَدٌ مِنَّا أَنَّهُ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا لَمْ يَقُلْ»

✧ O Abu Muhammad, by Allah, we do not know whether this Yemeni knows more about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ or you? He has said about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what he did not say, meaning Abu Hurairah. Talhah said, "By Allah, there is no doubt that he heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what we did not hear and knew what we did not know. We were wealthy people with houses and families; we used to come to the Prophet of Allah ﷺ at the two ends of the day and then return. Abu Hurairah was poor, with no wealth, no family, and no child. His hand was with the hand of the Prophet ﷺ, and he went around with him wherever he went. There is no doubt that he knew what we did not know and heard what we did not hear. None of us ever accused him of saying about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what he did not say."
