قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ؓ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:

« إِذَا بَلَغَ الْعَبْدُ سِتِّينَ سَنَةً فَقَدْ أَعْذَرَ اللهُ تَعَالَى إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُمُرِ ».. أَوْ قَالَ: « أَبْلَغَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُمُرِ

  • Abū al-Ḥasan Nur al-Dīn ʿAlī b. Abi Bakr al-Haythamī

    رجاله رجال الصحيح

    machine translationIts narrators are the narrators of the Ṣaḥīḥ.

    in المطالب العالية, p. 3721
  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    وهذا إسناد صحيح ولكن له علة رواه غير واحد عن أبي حازم عن سعيد المقبري عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه ومن هذا الوجه علقه البخاري فإن كان حماد بن زيد حفظه فيحتمل على أن يكون سمعه من وجهين

    machine translationThis chain is sound (ṣaḥīḥ), but it has a defect (ʿillah): more than one narrator related it from Abū Ḥāzim, from Saʿīd al-Maqburī, from Abū Hurayrah, may God be pleased with him, and it is by this route that al-Bukhārī cited it in suspended form (maʿlūq). So if Ḥammād b. Zayd memorized it, it is possible that he heard it by two routes.
