Haramī ibn ʿUmārah relates from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Ḥassān:
“I heard ʿIkrimah say, ‘I pursued knowledge for forty years, and I used to issue legal rulings at the door while Ibn ʿAbbās was inside the house.’”
Al-Zubayr ibn al-Khirrīt transmits from ʿIkrimah that he said:
“Ibn ʿAbbās would place an iron shackle on my foot (1) so that I might learn the Quran and the Sunnah.”
Yazīd al-Naḥwī reports from ʿIkrimah:
“That Ibn ʿAbbās said to him, ‘Go forth and give the people fatwas, and I will be your support.’” ʿIkrimah added, “Had those people been twice as many, I would still have given them verdicts.”
