Clarification That The Chain Of Narration Is Part Of The Religion, And Reports Should Only Be Narrated From Those Who Are Trustworthy, And That Critical Assessment And Evaluation of Narrators For Things That Are True Is Permissible And Is In Fact Obligatory; And That Doing So Is Not Backbiting That Is Forbidden, Rather It Is Defending The Honorable Shari'ah

English translation

[64] It was narrated that Hammâm said: "Abû Dâwûd Al-A'ma entered upon Qatâdah and when he left, they said: 'This man claims that he met eighteen men who had been present at (the battle at) Badr.' Qatâdah said: 'He used to beg before the plague, and he has nothing to do with that at all, and he should not speak. By Allâh, Al-Hasan did not narrate directly from anyone who had been present at Badr, and Sa'eed bin Al-Mûsâyyab did not narrate directly from anyone who had been present at Badr, except for Sa'd bin Mâlik.'"

Arabic text

وحَدَّثَنِي حَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا هَمَّامٌ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْأَعْمَى عَلَى قَتَادَةَ، فَلَمَّا قَامَ، قَالُوا: إِنَّ هَذَا يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ لَقِيَ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ بَدْرِيًّا، فَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ: «هَذَا كَانَ سَائِلًا قَبْلَ الْجَارِفِ، لَا يَعْرِضُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ هَذَا، وَلَا يَتَكَلَّمُ فِيهِ، فَوَاللهِ مَا حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ عَنْ بَدْرِيٍّ مُشَافَهَةً، وَلَا حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ بَدْرِيٍّ مُشَافَهَةً، إِلَّا عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ»
