حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَکِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ح و حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ بْنَ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ يَقُولُا لَا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا الثِّقَاتُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 31
Nasr bin Alī al-Jahdhamī narrated to us, al-Asma’ī narrated to us, on authority of Ibn Abī-Zinād, on authority of his father, he said: ‘I met one hundred [transmitters] in al-Madīnah, each of whom were reliable. Narrations were not taken from one about who it was said, ‘he is not from its people’.’
