I said: This is a good chain of transmission, all of its narrators are trustworthy, the narrators of the two Shaykhs, except for Muḥammad ibn ʿUthmān ibn Abī Shaybah, about whom there is some discussion. His ḥadīth does not descend from the rank of ḥasan, if Allāh wills, as I have clarified in the introduction to "Masāʾil Ibn Abī Shaybah Shayūkhuh" authored by this Muḥammad ibn ʿUthmān. And the ḥadīth was said by al-Haythamī (3/224) following al-Mundhirī (2/119): "It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in al-Awsaṭ with two chains of transmission, one of which is the narrators of the ṣaḥīḥ." Thus he said, and this Ibn Shaybah is not among the narrators of the ṣaḥīḥ, but it was narrated by al-Khaṭīb in "Tārīkhuh" (2/79) through the route of Muḥammad ibn Abān al-Balkhī who said: ʿAbd al-Razzāq informed us from Sufyān al-Thawrī from Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir from Muḥarrir ibn Abī Hurayrah from his father, raised [to the Prophet] with the wording: "No one ever raises their voice in talbiyah except that the sun sets with their sins." This is a chain of transmission, all of whose narrators are those of al-Bukhārī, except for Muḥarrir ibn Abī Hurayrah, who is among the narrators of al-Nasāʾī and Ibn Mājah only, and none but Ibn Ḥibbān declared him trustworthy. Therefore, al-Ḥāfiẓ Ibn Ḥajar did not declare him trustworthy but sufficed with saying: "Acceptable," meaning in cases of corroboration. Moreover, there is another hidden defect in the chain pointed out by al-Khaṭīb, who said after it: "Muḥammad ibn Abān alone narrated it from ʿAbd al-Razzāq from al-Thawrī, and he was contradicted by al-Ḥasan ibn Abī al-Rabīʿ al-Jurjānī, who narrated it from ʿAbd al-Razzāq from Yāsīn al-Zayyāt from Ibn al-Munkadir with it," then he traced his chain to al-Ḥasan with it. Then he traced another ḥadīth for Muḥammad ibn Abān al-Balkhī from ʿAbd al-Razzāq, about which Abū Dāwūd said: "They criticized it regarding Ibn Abān!" I said: Both Ibn Abān al-Balkhī and al-Ḥasan al-Jurjānī are trustworthy, but the first is criticized in some of his narrations from ʿAbd al-Razzāq. His narration, when contradicted, is anomalous and weak, and al-Khaṭīb's previous statement indicates this. The difference between his narration and that of al-Jurjānī is that the first made Sufyān al-Thawrī in place of Yāsīn al-Zayyāt, and al-Thawrī is a great and well-known imam, while Yāsīn al-Zayyāt is very weak, which is the defect in this route. And Allāh knows best.
