Hadith 829

ناهُ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ مَوْقُوفًا غَيْرَ مَرْفُوعٍ . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ : ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَعْلَمُ بِحَدِيثِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ
The Imam narrates this hadith with a mawquf chain from his esteemed teacher, Rabi’ bin Sulayman. (That is, this is the statement of Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه and not the saying of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم.) Imam Abu Bakr رحمه الله says that Ibn Wahb was more knowledgeable about the hadith of the people of Madinah than Ubaydullah bin Abd al-Majid. (That is, the mawquf chain is preferred.)
