Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

Narrated from him were: Anas, Qays ibn Abi Hazim, Abu Waʾil, al-Shaʿbi, Hammam ibn Harith, and his four sons—al-Mundhir, ʿUbayd Allah, Ibrahim (who did not live long enough to meet him), and Ayyub—as well as Shahr ibn Hawshab, Ziyad ibn ʿIlaqah, his grandson Abu Zurʿah ibn ʿAmr ibn Jarir, Abu Ishaq al-Sabiʿi, and many others.

He pledged allegiance to the Prophet ﷺ to offer sincere counsel to every Muslim.

Ahmad said: Ishaq al-Azraq narrated to us; Yunus narrated to us, from al-Mughira ibn Shibl, who related:

Jarir said: “When I drew near to Medina, I made my mount kneel, unpacked my luggage, and put on my finest robe. I then entered the mosque and found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ preaching. People fixed their gaze on me, so I asked my neighbor, ‘Servant of Allah, has the Messenger of Allah mentioned anything about me?’ He replied, ‘Yes, he spoke of you in the best of terms. In the midst of his sermon he said: “A man from the best of those of Yemen will soon emerge from this pass; indeed, upon his face is the touch of an angel.”’

“So I praised Allah.” (1)

I (the biographer) say: He was remarkably handsome, perfect in appearance.

Ibn ʿUyaynah said: Ismaʿil narrated to us, from Qays, who said: I heard Jarir ibn ʿAbd Allah say, “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never looked at me without smiling and saying, ‘From that gate there is about to enter a man from the best of those of Yemen; upon his face is the touch of an angel.’” (2)

(1) Its chain of transmission is strong. Yunus is Ibn Abi Ishaq al-Sabi‘i. The report is found in the Musnad 4/364, and also at 4/359–360 through the route of Abu Qatan from Yunus. Al-Tabarani likewise relates it (no. 2483) via Ali ibn Abd al-Aziz, from Abu Nuaym, from Yunus. (2) Its chain of transmission is sound (sahih). Al-Humaydi includes it in his Musnad, no. 800. The first portion of the narration is also recorded by al-Bukhari 7/99 and Muslim (2475) through the isnad of Bayan, from Qays ibn Abi Hazim, from Jarir ibn …
حَدَّثَ عَنْهُ: أَنَسٌ، وَقَيْسُ بنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، وَأَبُو وَائِلٍ، وَالشَّعْبِيُّ، وَهَمَّامُ بنُ حَارِثٍ، وَأَوْلاَدُهُ الأَرْبَعَةُ: المُنْذِرُ، وَعُبَيْدُ اللهِ، وَإِبْرَاهِيْمُ - لَمْ يُدْرِكْهُ - وَأَيُّوْبُ، وَشَهْرُ بنُ حَوْشَبٍ، وَزِيَادُ بنُ عِلاقَةَ، وَحَفِيْدُهُ؛ أَبُو زُرْعَةَ بنُ عَمْرِو بنِ جَرِيْرٍ، وَأَبُو إِسْحَاقَ السَّبِيْعِيُّ، وَجَمَاعَةٌ. وَبَايَعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَلَى النُّصْحِ لِكُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ. أَحْمَدُ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ الأَزْرَقُ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوْنُسُ، عَنِ المُغِيْرَةِ بنِ شِبْلٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ جَرِيْرٌ: لَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنَ المَدِيْنَةِ، أَنَخْتُ رَاحِلَتِي، وَحَلَلْتُ عَيْبَتِي، وَلَبِسْتُ حُلَّتِي، ثُمَّ دَخَلْتُ المَسْجِدَ، فَإِذَا بِرَسُوْلِ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْطُبُ، فَرَمَانِي النَّاسُ بِالحِدَقِ، فَقُلْتُ لِجَلِيْسِي: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ، هَلْ ذَكَرَ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ مِنْ أَمْرِي شَيْئاً؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، ذَكَرَكَ بِأَحْسَنِ الذِّكْرِ، بَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَخْطُبُ، إِذْ عَرَضَ لَهُ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: (إِنَّهُ سَيَدْخُلُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا الفَجِّ مِنْ خَيْرِ ذِي يَمَنٍ، أَلاَ وَإِنَّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ مِسْحَةَ مَلَكٍ) . قَالَ: فَحَمِدْتُ اللهَ (١) . قُلْتُ: كَانَ بَدِيْعَ الحُسْنِ، كَامِلَ الجَمَالِ. ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيْلُ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، سَمِعْتُ جَرِيْرَ بنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُوْلُ: مَا رَآنِي رَسُوْلُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلاَّ تَبَسَّمَ فِي وَجْهِي، وَقَالَ: (يَطْلُعُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا البَابِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَيْرِ ذِي يَمَنٍ، عَلَى وَجْهِهِ مِسْحَةُ مَلَكٍ) (٢) .
