Sahih Muslim — Hadith #7605

Muhammad bin Abdullah Qahzad narrated to me a hadith, he said: I heard Abdullah bin Uthman bin Jablah, he was saying: I said to Abdullah bin Mubarak: Who is this from whom you narrated the hadith of Abdullah bin Amr: “The day of Eid al-Fitr is the day of gifts.” He said: Sulayman bin Hajjaj, look carefully at the hadiths that you have with you (or the hadiths that I have given you). Ibn Qahzad said: I heard Wahb bin Zam’ah narrating from Sufyan bin Abdul Malik, he said: Abdullah, meaning Ibn Mubarak, said: I saw Ruh bin Ghatif, the narrator of the hadith with blood equal to one dirham. I sat with him in a gathering, and I was ashamed of my companions for seeing me sitting with him despite my dislike for narrating hadith to him, because of his dislike of hadith and the lack of acceptance of his narration.
