Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

Among those who transmitted from him were Ḥammād ibn Salamah, Abū ʿAwānah, Jaʿfar ibn Sulaymān, Dāwūd al-Ṭāʾī, Muʿtamir ibn Sulaymān, and others.

His supplications were answered, and a number of extraordinary feats and spiritual states are reported of him. Although he once possessed considerable wealth, when al-Ḥasan’s admonition touched his heart he gave away forty thousand, contented himself with little, and worshipped Allah until the certainty (death) reached him.

Ḍamrah ibn Rabīʿah said: al-Sarī ibn Yaḥyā related to us: “Ḥabīb would be seen in Basra on the Day of Tarwiyah and the very next day he would be seen in ʿArafah.” (1)

I have cited further accounts of him in my History of Islam, and Ibn ʿAsākir also mentioned him in his History.

55 – al-Ḥasan ibn ʿUbayd Allah ibn ʿUrwah al-Nakhaʿī * (M, 4)
The jurist, Abū ʿUrwah al-Nakhaʿī, from Kufa.
He narrated from Abū ʿAmr al-Shaybānī, Shaqīq Abū Wāʾil, Zayd ibn Wahb, and Ibrāhīm al-Nakhaʿī.
Among those who transmitted from him were al-Thawrī, Jarīr ibn ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd, Sufyān ibn ʿUyaynah, and ʿAbd Allah.

(1) Karamah (a saintly miracle) is a genuine and undeniable reality that God grants to whomever He wishes; occurrences that defy normal laws remain entirely within His power. Yet establishing the authenticity of any specific karamah requires evidence that yields certainty, which is lacking in this case. The chain of transmission for the story contains Abd al-Rahman ibn Waqid, who reports it from Dumrah; as noted by Abu Nuʿaym in al-Hilyah, 6/154, Ibn ʿAdi judged him saying, “He narrates objectionable reports from reliable transmitters.” (*) Khalifah, Tabaqat, p. 165; al-Bukhari, al-Tarikh al-Kabir, 2/297; Ibn Abi Hatim, al-Jarh wa-l-Taʿdil, 3/23; Ibn Hibban, Mashahir ʿUlama al-Amsar, p. 163; al-Mizzi, Tahdhib al-Kamal, p. 267; al-Dhahabi, Tarikh al-Islam, 5/236; Ibn Hajar, Tahdhib al-Tahdhib, 2/292-293; Khulasa Tadhhib al-Kamal, p. 79.
وَعَنْهُ: حَمَّادُ بنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَأَبُو عَوَانَةَ، وَجَعْفَرُ بنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَدَاوُدُ الطَّائِيُّ، وَمُعْتَمِرُ بنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَآخَرُوْنَ. وَكَانَ مُجَابَ الدَّعْوَةِ، تُؤثَرُ عَنْهُ كَرَامَاتٌ وَأَحوَالٌ، وَكَانَ لَهُ دُنْيَا، فَوَقَعَتْ مَوْعِظَةُ الحَسَنِ فِي قَلْبِهِ، فَتَصَدَّقَ بِأَرْبَعِيْنَ أَلفاً، وَقَنِعَ بِاليَسِيْرِ، وَعَبَدَ اللهَ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ اليَقِيْنُ. قَالَ ضَمْرَةُ بنُ رَبِيْعَةَ: حَدَّثَنَا السَّرِيُّ بنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: كَانَ حَبِيْبٌ يُرَى بِالبَصْرَةِ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ، وَيُرَى بِعَرَفَةَ مِنَ الغَدِ (١) . قُلْتُ: سُقتُ مِنْ أَخْبَارِه فِي (تَارِيْخِ الإِسْلاَمِ) . وَذَكَرَهُ: ابْنُ عَسَاكِرَ فِي (تَارِيْخِهِ) . ٥٥ - الحَسَنُ بنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بنِ عُرْوَةَ النَّخَعِيُّ * (م، ٤) الفَقِيْهُ، أَبُو عُرْوَةَ النَّخَعِيُّ، الكُوْفِيُّ. حَدَّثَ عَنْ: أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، وَشَقِيْقٍ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، وَزَيْدِ بنِ وَهْبٍ، وَإِبْرَاهِيْمَ النَّخَعِيِّ. رَوَى عَنْهُ: الثَّوْرِيُّ، وَجَرِيْرُ بنُ عَبْدِ الحَمِيْدِ، وَسُفْيَانُ بنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ
(١) الكرامة حق لا يدفع، يختص الله بها من عباده من يشاء، وخوارق العادة لا تستعصي على الله تعالى. ولكن إثبات ذلك يحتاج إلى دليل يفيد اليقين، وهو هنا متعذر. على أن في سند القصة عبد الرحمن بن واقد راويها عن ضمرة كما في " الحلية " ٦ / ١٥٤، وقد قال فيه ابن عدي: يحدث بالمناكير عن الثقات.
