مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَنْبَأَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أَنْبَأَ جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ وَمُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ أَيْمَنَ قَالَ

وَكَانَ أَيْمَنُ رَجُلًا يُذْكَرُ مِنْهُ خَيْرٌ قَالَ «تُقْطَعُ يَدُ السَّارِقِ فِي أَقَلَّ مِنْ ثَمَنِ الْمِجَنِّ وَكَانَ ثَمَنُ الْمِجَنِّ يَوْمَئِذٍ دِينَارًا» فَأَيْمَنُ ابْنُ أُمِّ أَيْمَنَ الصَّحَابِيُّ أَخُو أُسَامَةَ لِأُمِّهِ أَجَلُّ وَأَنْبَلُ أَنْ يُنْسَبَ إِلَى الْجَهَالَةِ فَيُقَالُ كَانَ رَجُلٌ يُذْكَرُ مِنْهُ خَيْرٌ إِنَّمَا يُقَالُ مِثْلُ هَذِهِ اللَّفْظِ لِمَجْهُولٍ لَا يُعْرَفُ بِالصِّحَّةِ عَلَى أَنَّ جَرِيرًا قَدْ أَوْقَفَهُ عَلَى أَيْمَنَ هَذَا وَلَمْ يُسْنِدْهُ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

Chain of narrators
  1. Abū Bakr b. Isḥāq Anbaʾ Ismāʿīl b. Qutaybah
  2. Yaḥyá b. Yaḥyá Anbaʾ Jarīr
  3. Manṣūr
  4. ʿAṭāʾ and Mujāhid
  5. Ayman

✧ And Ayman was a man of whom good was mentioned. He said: "The hand of the thief is cut off for less than the price of a shield, and the price of a shield then was a dinar." Ayman ibn Umm Ayman, the Companion, brother of Usamah through his mother, is too great and noble to be attributed to obscurity and called "a man of whom good was mentioned." Such wording is only used for an unknown narrator whose reliability is not established, although Jarir stopped it on Ayman and did not trace it back. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the Talkhis.
