  الراجح المعول عليه هو أن حديث بسرة وحديث طلق كلاهما صحيحان لكن حديثها أصح وأثبت وأرجح من حديثه كما عرفت فيما تقدم

  machine translationThe preferred and relied-upon position is that the hadith of Busrah and the hadith of Ṭalq are both sound (ṣaḥīḥ), but her hadith is sounder, more established and more preponderant than his, as you learned earlier. Report a problem

• Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

  غاية ما يعلل به هذا الحديث أنه من رواية عروة عن مروان عن بسرة وأن رواية من رواه عن عروة عن بسرة منقطعة

  machine translationThe most that can be used to criticize this hadith is that it is from the narration of ʿUrwah, from Marwān, from Busrah, and that the narration of those who narrated it from ʿUrwah from Busrah is broken (munqaṭiʿ). Report a problem

• Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr

  كل من خرج في الصحيح ذكر حديث بسرة في هذا الباب وحديث طلق بن علي إلا البخاري فإنهما عنده متعارضان معلولان وعند غيره هما صحيحان والله المستعان

  machine translationEveryone who compiled a Ṣaḥīḥ mentioned the hadith of Busrah on this topic and the hadith of Ṭalq b. ʿAlī, except al-Bukhārī, for in his view the two conflict and are defective (maʿlūl), while in the view of others both are sound (ṣaḥīḥ). And Allah is the one whose help is sought. Report a problem
