Tirmidhi

Urdu Footnote:
Note:
(In the chain of narration, the narrator Qais ibn al-Rabi‘ al-Kufi is a trustworthy (saduq) narrator, but in old age his memory changed, and his son inserted into his book those hadiths which were not from his narration, and he narrated those reports. As for Abu al-Nasr Asadi al-Basri, Abu Zur‘ah declared him trustworthy (thiqa), and Imam al-Bukhari says that Abu Nasr’s hearing from Ibn ‘Abbas is not well-known (Sahih al-Bukhari, al-Nikah (5105), Tahdhib al-Kamal: 34/343), and Hafiz Ibn Hajar calls Abu Nasr Asadi unknown (majhul) (al-Taqrib).1
