Al-Zuhrī, on the authority of Sālim, heard Abū Hurayrah say:
“A group of people in the state of iḥrām once asked me about some non-pilgrims who had presented them with game. I instructed them to eat it. Afterwards I met ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb and informed him. He said, ‘Had you issued any other ruling, I would have dealt you a painful blow.’ (1)

Zayd ibn al-Ḥubbāb, through ʿAbd al-Wāḥid ibn Mūsā, reported: Nuʿaym (2) ibn al-Muḥarrar ibn Abī Hurayrah told us, on the authority of his grandfather:
“He possessed a cord with two thousand knots, and he would not go to sleep until he had performed tasbīḥ (glorification of Allah) over each one of them.”

Shabābah ibn Sawwār related: ʿĀṣim ibn Muḥammad narrated from his father:
“I observed Abū Hurayrah come out on Friday, grasp the two pommels of the pulpit while standing, and say, ‘The truthful, the confirmed Messenger, Abū al-Qāsim ﷺ, related to us…’ He would continue narrating until he heard the door of the maqṣūrah open for the Imām’s entrance, whereupon he would sit down.” (3)

Aḥmad ibn Isḥāq informed me; al-Fatḥ ibn ʿAbd al-Salām informed us; Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī, Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad, and Muḥammad ibn ʿUmar the judge said: Abū Jaʿfar ibn al-Muslimah told us; ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān told us; Jaʿfar ibn Muḥammad al-Firyābī narrated to us; Qutaybah ibn Saʿīd narrated to us; Ibn Luhayʿah narrated, from Abū Yūnus,
