إسماعيل بن مسلم المكي أبو ربيعة ضعيف ضعفه ابن المبارك وتركه يحيى وعبد الرحمن بن مهدي روي عن الزهري عن عبد الله بن كعب بن مالك عن أبيه مرفوعا فذكره قال وإنما هو عن الزهري قال كان أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقولون إذا أشعر الجنين فذكاته ذكاة أمه هكذا قاله ابن عيينة وغيره من الثقات وليس هذا هو إسماعيل بن مسلم البصري العبدي صاحب المتوكل ذاك ثقة
machine translationIsmāʿīl b. Muslim al-Makkī, Abū Rabīʿah, is weak (ḍaʿīf). Ibn al-Mubārak declared him weak, and Yaḥyā and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī abandoned him (tarakahu). He narrated from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAbdullāh b. Kaʿb b. Mālik, from his father, as a raised report (marfūʿ), and he mentioned it. He said: Rather, it is from al-Zuhrī, who said: The Companions of the Messenger of God ﷺ used to say: When the fetus has grown hair, its slaughter is the slaughter of its mother. Thus said Ibn ʿUyaynah and others of the trustworthy narrators. This is not Ismāʿīl b. Muslim al-Baṣrī al-ʿAbdī, the associate of al-Mutawakkil; that one is trustworthy (thiqah).
