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

[61] It was narrated that Hammâd bin Zaid said: "Ayyûb said: 'I have a neighbor, then he mentioned some of his virtues, (then he said) but if he were to testify before me even concerning two date fruits, I would not find his testimony acceptable.'"

Arabic text

حَدَّثَنِي حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: «إِنَّ لِي جَارًا، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ، وَلَوْ شَهِدَ عِنْدِي عَلَى تَمْرَتَيْنِ مَا رَأَيْتُ شَهَادَتَهُ جَائِزَةً»
