- Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī
سنده جيد
machine translationIts chain of transmission is good (jayyid).
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2761 - Badr al-Dīn al-ʿAynī
أقل أحواله أن يكون حسنا فيصح الاحتجاج به
machine translationAt the very least, its status is that it is good (ḥasan), so it is valid to use it as evidence.
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2761 - Bazzār
لا نعلم أحدا أسنده بأحسن من هذا الإسناد ولا نعلم أحدا قال عن أبي بكرة إلا الحر بن مالك وكان لا بأس به وأحسبه أخطأ في هذا الحديث لأن الناس يروونه عن الحسن مرسلا
machine translationWe do not know anyone who transmitted it with a better chain than this one, and we do not know anyone who said "from Abū Bakrah" except al-Ḥurr b. Mālik, who was acceptable (lā ba'sa bihi). I think he made a mistake in this hadith, because people narrate it from al-Ḥasan as a mursal report.
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2761 - Bazzār
تفرد به الحر بن مالك والناس يروونه مرسلا
machine translationAl-Ḥurr b. Mālik was alone in narrating it, while people narrate it as a mursal report.
