567 — Muhammad ibn Idrīs also related to me; Yazīd ibn Abd Allah related to us; Baqiyya related to us; Muslim ibn Ziyād related to us, saying: “Abd Allah ibn Abī Zakariyyā would hardly ever speak unless he was asked, yet he was among the most genial of people and one of those who smiled most often.”
٥٦٧ - وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ قَالَ: «كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي زَكَرِيَّا لَا يَكَادُ يَتَكَلَّمَ حَتَّى يُسْأَلَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَبَشِّ النَّاسِ، وَأَكْثَرِهِمْ تَبَسُّمًا»
