- Ibn al-Qaṭṭān
أراه لا يصح من أجلهيعنى عبد الأعلى بن عامر الثعلبي كان ابن مهدي لا يحدث عنه ووصفه بالاضطراب وقال أبو زرعة ضعيف وربما رفع الحديث وربما وقفه وقال ابن عدي قال أحمد رضي الله عنه منكر الحديث حدث عن سعيد بن جبير وابن الحنفية وأبي عبد الرحمن السلمي بأشياء لا يتابع عليها
machine translationI see that it is not sound because of him, meaning ʿAbd al-Aʿlā b. ʿĀmir al-Thaʿlabī. Ibn Mahdī used not to narrate from him and described him as inconsistent (muḍṭarib). Abū Zurʿah said: weak (ḍaʿīf); at times he would raise the hadith to the Prophet (marfūʿ) and at times he would stop it at the Companion (mawqūf). Ibn ʿAdī said: Aḥmad, may God be pleased with him, said: he is of rejected hadith (munkar al-ḥadīth). He narrated from Saʿīd b. Jubayr, Ibn al-Ḥanafiyyah and Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Sulamī things in which he is not corroborated.

إسناده ضعيف فإن في إسناده عبد الأعلى بن عامر ومدار الحديث عليه وهو غير محتج بحديثه
machine translationIts chain is weak (ḍaʿīf), because in its chain is ʿAbd al-Aʿlā b. ʿĀmir, and the hadith revolves around him, and his hadith is not to be used as evidence.
