(2) أحمد بن سَيّار هذا هو ابن أيوب المروزي الحافظ وكذلك كنّى ابن حبان في "الثقات" ثابت بن قيس بأبي عبد الرحمن، قال: وقيل: أبو محمد، كذا قال مع أنَّ الأشهر في كنيته أنه أبو محمد، كما جزم به ابن أبي خيثمة في "تاريخه الكبير" في السفر الثاني (305)، والبلاذُري في "فتوح البلدان" ص 97، وابن مَنْدَه في "معرفة الصحابة" 1/ 336، وغيرهم، وبه جزم ابن حبان في "مشاهير علماء الأمصار" (41)، فهو المعتمد.
Technical note / Examination of the kunyah: Ahmad bin Sayyar is Ibn Ayyub al-Marwazi al-Hafiz. Ibn Hibban gave Thabit bin Qays's kunyah in "al-Thiqat" as "Abu Abd al-Rahman", and said that "Abu Muhammad" has also been said. However, his better-known kunyah is "Abu Muhammad", as stated with certainty by Ibn Abi Khaythamah in "al-Tarikh al-Kabir" (second part, 305), al-Baladhuri in "Futuh al-Buldan" (p. 97), Ibn Mandah in "Ma'rifat al-Sahabah" (1/336) and others. Ibn Hibban himself also affirmed it with certainty in "Mashahir 'Ulama' al-Amsar" (41), so this (Abu Muhammad) is the reliable view.
