Hadith 1236
'Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade selling and gifting of wala’ 1. © Imam Tirmidhi says:
1 - This hadith is hasan sahih,
2 - We know it only through the narration of Abdullah bin Dinar, who narrated it from Ibn Umar,
3 - Yahya bin Salim narrated this hadith via: «عبيد الله بن عمر عن نافع عن ابن عمر عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم» that he (the Prophet) forbade selling and gifting of wala’. There is a mistake in this chain. The mistake is from Yahya bin Salim,
4 - Abdulwahhab Thaqafi, Abdullah bin Numayr, and many others narrated it via: «عن عبيد الله بن عمر عن عبد الله بن دينار عن ابن عمر عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم», and this is more authentic than the narration of Yahya bin Salim,
5 - The people of knowledge act upon this hadith.
