and he died there in 207 AH.
I say: Nothing of his narrations appears in the Six Books. (1)
I read to Aḥmad ibn ʿAbd al-Munʿim al-Qazwīnī, who told us: Idrīs ibn Muḥammad al-ʿAṭṭār, under a general authorization, informed us; Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī ibn Abī Dharr informed us; Abū Ṭāhir ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥīm informed us; ʿAbd Allāh ibn Muḥammad ibn Fūrak narrated to us; Muḥammad ibn Ibrāhīm ibn Abān narrated to us; Bakr ibn Bakkār narrated to us; ʿĀʾidh ibn Shurayḥ narrated—from Anas—who said:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “If I were invited to a sheep’s trotter, I would accept.”
This is a singular (gharīb) ḥadith. ʿĀʾidh is weak in ḥadith and belongs to the younger generation of the Successors. (2)
- ʿAlī ibn Bakkār, Abū al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī
The imam, the godly devotee, the worshipper, Abū al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī, the ascetic, resident of Maṣṣīṣah, and disciple of Ibrāhīm ibn Adham.
He narrated from Ibn ʿAwn, Muḥammad ibn ʿAmr, Ḥusayn al-Muʿallim, Hishām ibn Ḥassān, al-Awzāʿī, and a group of others.
He was not a prolific transmitter.
Among those who transmitted from him are Hunnād ibn al-Sarī and Yūsuf ibn Saʿīd ibn Muslim,
