حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ

قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالدَّيْنِ قَبْلَ الْوَصِيَّةِ وَأَنْتُمْ تَقْرَءُونَهَا {مِنْ بَعْدِ وَصِيَّةٍ يُوصِي بِهَا أَوْ دَيْنٍ } وَإِنَّ أَعْيَانَ بَنِي الأُمِّ لَيَتَوَارَثُونَ دُونَ بَنِي الْعَلاَّتِ

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that the debts should be paid off before the execution of the will. You recite: '(The distribution in all cases is) after the payment of legacies he may have bequeathed or debts.' The sons of one mother (from the same father) inherit from one another, but not the sons from different mothers (but the same father).”

What scholars said about it

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Shawkānī

    إسناده ضعيف ولكنه معتضد بالاتفاق

    machine translationIts chain of transmission is weak (ḍaʿīf), but it is supported by the agreement [of the scholars].

    in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2808
  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    والحارث فيه ضعيف

    machine translationAnd al-Ḥārith is weak (ḍaʿīf) in it.

    in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2808
  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    والحارث وإن كان ضعيفا فإن الإجماع منعقد على وفق ما روي

    machine translationAlthough al-Ḥārith is weak (ḍaʿīf), the consensus (ijmāʿ) is established in accordance with what was narrated.

    in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2808
  • Shafiʿī

    لا يثبت أهل الحديث مثله

    machine translationThe scholars of hadith (ahl al-ḥadīth) do not authenticate the like of it.

  • Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī

    متناع أهل الحديث عن إثبات هذا لتفرد الحارث الأعور بروايته عن علي والحارث لا يحتج بخبره لطعن الحفاظ فيه

    machine translationThe scholars of hadith refrained from affirming this because al-Ḥārith al-Aʿwar was alone in narrating it from ʿAlī, and al-Ḥārith's report is not taken as evidence because the memorizers (ḥuffāẓ) criticized him. [The beginning of the sentence is incomplete in the Arabic: "mtināʿ" seems to be "imtināʿ".]
