أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَهُوَ الْعَقَدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَتَمَنَّوْا لِقَاءَ الْعَدُوِّ فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فَاصْبِرُوا» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ كَانَ يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ يُضَعِّفُ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَقَدْ نَظَرْنَا فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَلَمْ نَجَدْ شَيْئًا يَدُلُّ عَلَى ضَعْفِهِ وَيَحْيَى كَانَ أَعْلَمَ مِنَّا وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Do not wish to meet the enemy, but when you meet them, be steadfast." Abu Abd al-Rahman said: Yahya b. Ma'in considered al-Mughirah b. Abd al-Rahman weak. Abu Abd al-Rahman said: We examined his hadith and found nothing indicating his weakness. And Yahya was more knowledgeable than us, and Allah knows best.
