He lived into his eighties, and I obtained some of his loftiest narrations during the sessions of al-Makhladī (1).
10 – The brother of Zubayr the ḥāfiẓ: Saʿīd ibn Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad al-Baghdādī
The shaykh and ḥadith scholar, Abū ʿUthmān Saʿīd ibn Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad al-Baghdādī al-Bayyiʿ, known as “the brother of Zubayr the ḥāfiẓ,” was an upright and trustworthy elder.
He narrated from Isḥāq ibn Abī Isrāʾīl, ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Yūnus al-Sarrāj, ʿUqbah ibn Mukram, and several others of their standing.
Those who transmitted from him include Abū Ḥafṣ ibn Shāhīn, al-Dāraquṭnī, Yūsuf al-Qawwās, Abū al-Faḍl ibn al-Maʾmūn, and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī Shurayḥ.
Al-Qawwās deemed him reliable.
He died after the three-hundreds-and-twenties, in 321 AH.
Muḥammad ibn Ibrāhīm al-Naḥwī and a group of scholars told us: Ibn al-Lattī informed us; Abū al-Waqt informed us; Bībī (2) informed us; Ibn Abī Shurayḥ reported to us; he said: Saʿīd ibn Muḥammad related to us; he said: Muḥammad ibn Yazīd al-Adamī narrated to us; he said: Yaḥyā ibn Sulaym informed us, from Ismāʿīl ibn Umayyah and ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Nāfiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Tasbīḥ is for the men, and he permitted clapping for the women.” (3)
