"The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) used to advise us regarding you, meaning the students of ḥadīth." It was narrated by Tamām in "al-Fawāʾid" (1/4/2 - the manuscript of al-Ḥāfiẓ ʿAbd al-Ghanī al-Maqdisī) from ʿAbd Allāh ibn al-Ḥusayn al-Maṣīṣī, and Abū Bakr ibn Abī ʿAlī in "al-Arbaʿīn" (folio 117/1) from Mūsá ibn Hārūn, and al-Rāmahurmuzī in "al-Fāṣil bayna al-Rāwī wa-al-Wāʿī" (folio 5/2) and from him al-ʿAlāʾī in "Bughyat al-Mutalammis" (2/2) from Ibn Ishkāb, and al-Ḥākim (1/88) from al-Qāsim ibn Mughīrah al-Jawharī and Ṣāliḥ ibn Muḥammad ibn Ḥabīb al-Ḥāfiẓ, all of them from Saʿīd ibn Sulaymān (Mūsá ibn Hārūn, al-Jawharī, and Ṣāliḥ added: al-Wāsiṭī) who narrated to us from ʿAbbād ibn al-ʿAwām from al-Jurayrī from Abū Naḍrah from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī that he said: "Welcome to the advice of the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam)..." and he mentioned it.

I have counted for him in 'al-Musnad al-Ṣaḥīḥ' eleven foundational narrations from al-Jurayrī, and they did not include this ḥadīth, which is the first ḥadīth on the virtue of the students of ḥadīth, and no defect is known for it. This ḥadīth has paths collected by the people of ḥadīth from Abū Hārūn al-ʿAbdī from Abū Saʿīd, and Abū Hārūn is among those about whom they remained silent." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him, and al-ʿAlāʾī said afterward: "Its isnād is acceptable, because this Saʿīd ibn Sulaymān is al-Nashīṭī, who has some leniency that is tolerable, narrated from him by Abū Zurʿah and Abū Ḥātim al-Rāzī, among others." I said: He is not al-Nashīṭī and that is for several reasons:
