- "There are two things that the son of Adam dislikes: he dislikes death, yet death is better for the believer than tribulation, and he dislikes having little wealth, yet having little wealth means less reckoning." Narrated by Aḥmad (5/427, 427-428, 428), Abū ʿAmr al-Dānī in "al-Fitan" (179/1), and al-Baghawī in "Sharḥ al-Sunnah" (3/559 Islamic Manuscripts Library) from ʿAmr ibn Abī ʿAmr from ʿĀṣim ibn ʿUmar ibn Qatādah from Maḥmūd ibn Labīd as a marfūʿ ḥadīth. I say: This isnād is good, its men are trustworthy, the men of the two Shaykhs. Maḥmūd ibn Labīd is a young Companion, and most of his narrations are from the Companions as al-Ḥāfiẓ said in "al-Taqrīb." The mursal ḥadīths of the Companions are considered authoritative as established in the science of ḥadīth terminology, and for this reason, al-Suyūṭī indicated its authenticity in "al-Jāmiʿ al-Ṣaghīr" and explicitly stated it in "al-Kabīr" (1/19/2) saying: "And he authenticated it."

"The Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) saw Abū Bakr and ʿUmar, and said" and he mentioned it, and said: "In the chapter from ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿUmar, this is a mursal ḥadīth and ʿAbdullāh ibn Ḥanṭab did not meet the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam)." I say: Its men are trustworthy, but there is a disagreement in two places of its isnād: The first: in the narration of Ibn Abī Fudayk from ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz, whether there is an intermediary between them or not? Qutaybah narrated it from him like this without the intermediary, and Mūsá ibn Ayyūb followed him saying: from Ibn Abī Fudayk from ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz. Narrated by Ibn Abī Ḥātim in "al-ʿIlal" (2/385) from his father: Mūsá ibn Ayyūb narrated it to us. And he said about it: "And this is more likely." Meaning from the following aspect:
