Saad bin Abu Waqqas reported,
I was sitting beside Humayd bin Abdul-Rahman in the mosque when a handsome old man from the tribe of Banu Ghifar passed by. He was hard of hearing. Humayd sent for him, and when the man came forward, Humayd said to me, "Nephew, make room for him between you and me, for he was a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."The man came and sat between us, and Humayd said to him, "Tell me the hadith you narrated to me from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."The old man said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Allah detests the eloquent show-off who speaks with the finest speech and laughs with the finest laugh.'"
Azami 375
Sahihعن إبراهيم بن سعد، أخبرني أبي، قال
كنت جالسا إلى جنب حميد بن عبد الرحمن في المسجد، فمر شيخ جميل من بني غفار وفي أذنيه صمم- أو قال: وقر- أرسل إليه حميد، فلما أقبل قال: يا ابن أخي، أوسع له فيما بيني وبينك، فإنه قد صحب رسول الله ﷺ. فجاء حتى جلس فيما بيني وبينه، فقال له حميد: حدثني بالحديث الذي حدثتني عن رسول الله ﷺ. فقال الشيخ: سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: إن الله يبغض الشحاح، ينطق أحسن المنطق، ويضحك أحسن الضحك.
Imam Ahmad (23686), Ajurri in Sharia (648), and Bayhaqi in Asma was-Sifat (988) all narrated it through various routes from Ibrahim bin Saad, with his chain of transmission. Abu Ibrahim is Saad bin Ibrahim bin Saad Zuhri, Abu Ishaq, one of the narrators found in Bukhari, and through his route Abu Shaykh narrated it in Azamah (718) without the story.A worthy shaykh from Bani Ghifar was a companion, as Humayd bin Abdul-Rahman explicitly stated, and ignorance of his name does no harm. As for the claim that he was Abu Hurairah in some of the narrations, those narrations are daif.Aqeeli narrated it in Duafa (35/1) in the biography of Umaya bin Saeed Umawi, and said, "He is unknown, and there is an error in his hadith, perhaps it came from Amr bin Husayn." Then he gave the chain from Ibrahim bin Muhammad, who said, "Amr bin Husayn Aqeeli told us," who said, "Umaya bin Saeed Umawi told us," who said, "Safwan bin Salim informed us, from Humayd bin Abdul-Rahman bin Awf, from Abu Hurairah," who said, the Messenger of Allah said, "Allah brings forth the clouds, then sends down water into them. There is nothing more beautiful than His laughter, and nothing more beautiful than His speech. His laughter is the lightning, and His speech is the thunder."In it, besides the fact that Umaya bin Saeed Umawi is unknown, his teacher Amr bin Husayn, who is al-Aqeeli then al-Basri, one of the narrators found in Ibn Majah, was described by Daraqutni as "discarded," and Ibn Adi said, "He narrated several objectionable hadiths from unreliable narrators, and he is obscure in his narration."I say, "His laughter is the lightning, His speech is the thunder" is among his objectionable narrations.
