أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ فِي تَارِيخِ يَحْيَى بْنِ مَعِينٍ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيَّ يَقُولُ: قِيلَ لِيَحْيَى بْنِ مَعِينٍ، فِي حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا: " لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ " فَقَالَ يَحْيَى: لَيْسَ يَصِحُّ فِي هَذَا الشَّيْءِ إِلَّا حَدِيثُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى، فَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ فَهُمْ يَخْتَلِفُونَ فِيهِ، وَحَدَّثَ بِهِ الْخَيَّاطُ يَعْنِي: حَمَّادًا الْخَيَّاطَ، وَابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ بَعْضُهُمْ يَرْفَعُهُ وَبَعْضُهُمْ لَا يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ: وَسَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى يَقُولُ: رَوَى مِنْدَلٌ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ " قَالَ يَحْيَى: وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ فَيَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ إِنَّمَا أَنْكَرَ مَا بَيَّنَهُ فِي رِوَايَةِ الدُّورِيِّ عَنْهُ وَاسْتَثْنَى حَدِيثَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى وَحَكَمَ لَهُ بِالصِّحَّةِ وَأَنْكَرَ حِكَايَةَ بْنَ عُلَيَّةَ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ ثُمَّ فِي رِوَايَةِ ⦗١٧٣⦘ جَعْفَرٍ الطَّيَالِسِيِّ عَنْهُ كَمَا مَضَى ذِكْرُهُ، وَوَثَّقَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ مُوسَى فِي رِوَايَةِ الدَّارِمِيِّ عَنْهُ فَحَدِيثُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى صَحِيحٌ وَسَائِرُ الرِّوَايَاتِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا إِنْ ثَبَتَ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ لِحَدِيثِهِ شَاهِدٌ وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ.
Abbas bin Muhammad al-Duri said: Yahya bin Ma'in was asked about the hadith of Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): "There is no marriage without a guardian." Yahya said: Nothing on this matter is authentic except the hadith of Sulayman bin Musa. As for the hadith of Hisham bin Sa'd, they differ about it; al-Khayyat, meaning Hammad al-Khayyat, and Ibn Mahdi narrated it, some of them narrating it as marfu' (attributed to the Prophet) and some not. He said: And I heard Yahya say: Mindal narrated from Hisham bin Urwah, from his father, from Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no marriage without a guardian." Yahya said: This hadith is worthless.
So Yahya bin Ma'in only rejected what he explained in al-Duri's narration from him. He made an exception of the hadith of Sulayman bin Musa and judged it to be authentic, and he rejected Ibn Ulayyah's report from Ibn Jurayj in that narration and then in the narration of Ja'far al-Tayalisi from him, as mentioned earlier; and he declared Sulayman bin Musa trustworthy in al-Darimi's narration from him. So the hadith of Sulayman bin Musa is sahih (authentic), and the other narrations from Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), if any of them is established, are supporting witnesses for his hadith. And success is from Allah.
