Majma al-Zawaid 15712 — The virtue of Mu'adh bin Jabal

وَعَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكَ يَقُولُ : مَاتَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَمَانٍ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً ، وَقَائِلٌ يَقُولُ : ابْنُ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَثَلَاثِينَ . وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مُعَاذٌ إِمَامُ الْعُلَمَاءِ بِرِتْوَةٍ " . قَالَ ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ : الرِّتْوَةُ : الْمَنْزِلَةُ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ مُنْقَطِعَ الْإِسْنَادِ .
Yahya bin Bukayr said: I heard Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) say: "Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away at the age of 28; someone has stated that it was at the age of 32. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Mu'adh will be a step ahead of the scholars.'" Yahya bin Bukayr said: The word "ratwah" means "rank".
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and it is munqati' (broken) in its chain.
