Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

He died before 150 AH.

Among them is also:

34 – Ḥajjāj ibn Farāfiṣah al-Bāhilī, the devoted worshipper* (Abū Dāwūd, al-Nasāʾī).

He narrated from Ibn Sīrīn and ʿAṭāʾ, and his chain of transmission descends as far as ʿUqayl and the like. Those who transmitted from him include al-Thawrī, Muʿtamir, and Yūsuf ibn Yaʿqūb al-Ḍubaʿī. Al-Nasāʾī recorded his reports. His ḥadiths are of middling reliability. He passed away in one of the years slightly above 140 AH.

These seven were in Iraq during the era of Ḥajjāj ibn Arṭāt; we have mentioned them for the sake of distinction. There were, however, other contemporaries who bore the same names, yet they are not well-known—and Allah knows best. ⦗1⦘

ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-Munʿim informed us; ʿAbd al-Ṣamad ibn Muḥammad—present—reported to us; ʿAlī ibn al-Musallam reported to us; Ibn Ṭalāb reported to us; Ibn Jumayʿ reported to us; Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad—namely, Ibn al-Aʿrābī—narrated to us; Saʿdān ibn Naṣr narrated to us; Maʿmar ibn Sulaymān narrated to us; Ḥajjāj—meaning Ibn Arṭāt—narrated to us from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿĀṣim ibn Ḍamrah, from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Abī Baṣīr, from Ubayy ibn Kaʿb, who said:

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ attended the dawn prayer and asked, ‘Did so-and-so attend the prayer?’ They replied, ‘Yes.’ He asked, ‘And so-and-so, and so-and-so?’ They said, ‘No.’ He then said, ‘There is no prayer heavier upon the hypocrites than the night prayer and the dawn prayer; if they knew what reward lies in them, they would come to them even if they had to crawl.’ He then added, ‘The prayer of one man with two others is better than…’”
