Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

Yahyā ibn Maʿīn said, “He is acceptable.”
Abū Zurʿah al-Rāzī said, “Weak.”
Al-Bukhārī reported that Sulaymān ibn Ḥarb said, “He was the most mendacious of people.”
I (the author) say: that verdict is hasty and excessive, or perhaps he had someone else in mind whom I do not know.

As for:

67 – Ḥarb ibn Maymūn, known as Ṣāḥib al-Aghmiyah * (1)
He was an upright shaykh and devoted worshipper, though not an authoritative proof.
He narrated from ʿAwf and Khālid al-Ḥadhdhāʾ.
Those who transmitted from him include Naṣr ibn ʿAlī al-Jahḍamī and others.
He was a contemporary of Wakīʿ.

And as for:

68 – Ḥarb ibn Abī al-ʿĀliyah, Abū Muʿādh al-Baṣrī **
A shaykh and ḥadith transmitter, Abū Muʿādh al-Baṣrī.
He related from al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī and Abū al-Zubayr.
His students include Abū al-Walīd, Badal ibn al-Muḥabbar, Qutaybah ibn Saʿīd, Luwayn, and a number of others.
Yahyā ibn Maʿīn expressed conflicting views about him, and Aḥmad (ibn Ḥanbal) regarded him as somewhat weak.
Muslim and Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān each included a single ḥadith from him.
Al-Fallās used to say, “He is Ḥarb ibn Mihrān.”

(1) In the Taj edition the word al-a'miyah is vocalised in our copy with an undotted ayn, whereas our teacher reads it with a dotted ghayn. Al-Hafiz adopts the latter reading and explains that it seems to be the plural of ghima' (cover) on the same pattern as kisa', and that it refers to ceilings.
