Azami 7552

Tabarani related it in al-Kabir (8/379) from Muhammad bin Abdus bin Kamil, who said, Ahmad bin Ibrahim Mawsili narrated to us, who said, Khalaf bin Khalifa narrated to us, from Abu Malik Ashjai, from his father, and he related it. Its chain is hasan because of Khalaf bin Khalifa Wasiti, for he is hasan in hadith, and Abu Malik Ashjai's name was Saad bin Tariq.On this subject there is also a report from Ashaj Asri, that he came to the Prophet ﷺ with a delegation from Abdul-Qays to visit him. They approached, and when they arrived the Prophet ﷺ came into view for them, so they made their mounts kneel, and the people hurried forward, wearing nothing but their traveling clothes. Asri, however, stayed behind to tie up his companions' mounts and his own camel, then took his clothes out of his bag, all this in full view of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then he came forward to the Prophet ﷺ and greeted him, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "You have two traits that Allah and His Messenger love." He asked, "What are they, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Deliberateness and forbearance." He asked, "Are these something I was created with, or something I cultivate in myself?" He said, "No, rather you were created with them." He said, "Praise be to Allah."The Messenger then said, "Delegation of Abdul-Qays, why do I see that your faces have changed?" They said, "Messenger of Allah, we live in an unhealthy land, and we used to make from these drinking vessels beverages that would cut through the meat in our bellies, and now that we have been forbidden from using those vessels, that is what you see in our faces." The Prophet ﷺ said, "The vessels themselves are neither permitted nor forbidden, but every intoxicant is forbidden. It is not right that you should sit and drink until the veins are inflamed and you start boasting against one another, so that a man leaps upon his cousin and strikes him with a sword, leaving him lame." He said, and among the people that day was the very man who had been made lame by that.Abu Yaala related it (6849), and from him Ibn Hibban (7203), from Muhammad bin Marzuq, who said, Rawh bin Ubada narrated to us, who said, Hajjaj bin Hassan Taymi narrated to us, who said, Muthanna Abdi Abu Manazil, one of the Banu Ghanm, narrated to us, from Ashaj Asri, who said, and he related it.In this chain is Muthanna Abdi, whom no one deemed reliable except Ibn Hibban, who mentioned him among the trustworthy narrators (5/444) following his usual practice of validating obscure narrators. The rest of its narrators are trustworthy.Haythami mentioned it in al-Majma (5/63-64) and said, "Abu Yaala related it, and in it is Muthanna bin Mawa Abu Manazil, whom Ibn Abu Hatim mentioned without declaring him daif or trustworthy, and the rest of its narrators are trustworthy." It seems he was not aware of Ibn Hibban's validation of him, despite how often he relies on Ibn Hibban.
