al-Zuhd wa Sifat al-Zahidin 94

Abu Said ibn al-Arabi

«قَالَ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ»

Its text does not say these are the Prophet’s words ﷺ, so they are not framed in gold.

The text as printed

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ

The early critics’ verdicts on this hadith have not been extracted from their books yet: they are in their texts, and their extraction is coming.
