Azami 4241

Narrated by Abd bin Humayd (1113), from Ubaydullah bin Musa, from Israil bin Yunus, from Mansur, from Salim bin Abu Jaad, from Jabir, who related it. Its chain of transmission is sahih. Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (3392), and narrated it by this same route.As for what is reported from Jabir, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever, while being wealthy, asks for something he does not need, will be gathered on the Day of Resurrection with scratches on his face." This was narrated by Tabarani in Awsat (5463), from Muhammad bin Uthman bin Abu Shayba, who said, my father narrated to us, saying, I found in my father's book, from Ismail bin Hammad bin Abu Sulayman, from Mujalid, from Shaybi, from Jabir, who related it.Mujalid is Ibn Saeed bin Umayr, one of the narrators found in Muslim's collection, except that he is daif, though Bukhari held a favorable opinion of him.Tabarani said, "No one narrated this hadith from Ismail bin Hammad bin Abu Sulayman except Muhammad bin Uthman bin Abu Shayba."I say, the sole transmission of Muhammad bin Uthman bin Abu Shayba cannot be relied upon, because there is disagreement about him. Abdullah bin Ahmad bin Hanbal accused him of lying, and Ibn Kharrash said, "He used to fabricate hadith." Daraqutni said, "He took Numayr's book and narrated from it as his own." Ibn Adi treated him leniently, saying, "I have not seen him narrate any objectionable hadith, and as Abdan described him, there is no harm in him." Salih Jazara affirmed him as trustworthy.The conclusion is that when his narration is corroborated, there is no harm in it, but when he narrates alone, his sole transmission cannot be relied upon.As for Haythami, he said in Majma (3/96), "Its narrators are deemed trustworthy."
