First Hadith on Authenticity of Ahadith...
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Aban Bin Usman, from Abdullah Bin Abu Yafour who said, ‘And it was narrated to me by Husayn Bin Abu Al A’ala that he was present with Ibn Abu Yafour in this gathering where he said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah -asws about the differing in the Ahadith being reported by the ones we trust with it and the ones we do not trust with it’.
He -asws said: ‘Whenever a Hadith arrives to you and you find evidence for it from the Book of Allah -azwj , or from the words of Rasool-Allah -saww (fine), or else , the one which came to you which was the closest with it (the Book)’.
From him, from Ali Bin Al hakam, from Abaan Bin Usman, from Abdullah Bin Abu Yafour, from Al Husayn Bin Abu Al a’ala who was present with Abu Yafour in this gathering, said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah -asws about the differing in the Hadeeth, shall I report it from the one whom I trust it with, and among them were ones whom I do not trust with it?’ So he -asws said: ‘When a Hadeeth is reported to you, and you find evidence for it from the Book of Allah -azwj , or from the words of Rasool-Allah -saww , and whoever, he who brought it to you is more deserving of it (True Hadeeth)’.
