Allāh, from his father, who said: “It is related from a man of the Anṣār,” as a mursal report.
Abū Dāwūd recorded it in al-Marāsīl in exactly this form.
ʿUthmān al-Dārimī said: “I asked Yaḥyā ibn Maʿīn about al-Saylaḥīnī, and he replied, ‘He is truthful, the poor fellow.’” (1)
ʿAlī ibn al-Madīnī said: “ʿAbd al-Raḥmān used to reject the ḥadith of Mubārak, from al-Ḥasan, concerning the untying of knots in the grave”—that is, the report transmitted by al-Saylaḥīnī. (2)
I say: He is an accepted authority, truthful—God willing—and his narrations do not drop below the level of ḥasan. He was one of the vessels of knowledge.
