وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ مَرْثَدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ:
كُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي ذَرٍّ ؓ، فَذَكَرَهُ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَأَخْبِرْنَا بِهَا ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: لَوْ أُذِنَ لِي فِيهَا لَأَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهَا

هكذا قال الأوزاعي عن مرثد بن أبي مرثد وهو خطأ وإنما هو مالك بن مرثد عن أبيه ولم يقم الأوزاعي إسناد هذا الحديث ولا ساقه سياقة أهل الحفظ له
machine translationThus al-Awzāʿī said, from Marthad b. Abī Marthad, and this is an error; rather it is Mālik b. Marthad, from his father. Al-Awzāʿī did not establish the isnād of this hadith correctly, nor did he relate it in the manner of those who have memorized it.
