- Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
قتادة أحفظ
machine translationQatādah is the better memorizer.
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 1772 - أبو زرعة الرازي
ما أقف من هذا الحديث على شيء يحتمل أن يكونا جميعا صحيحين ومطرف عن أبيه ما أدري كيف هو والجريري بآخرة ساء حفظه وليس هو بذاك الحافظ
machine translationI do not find anything in this hadith to suggest that both of them could be sound. As for Muṭarrif from his father, I do not know how that is. And al-Jurayrī's memory deteriorated toward the end of his life, and he is not that reliable a memorizer (ḥāfiẓ).
