Jibril came and greeted the Prophet ﷺ

ahmad:1248Abdullāh > Shaybān > ʿAbd al-Wārith > Ḥusayn b. Dhakwān > ʿAmr b. Khālid > Ḥabbah b. Abī Ḥabbah > ʿĀṣim b. Ḍamrah > ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib > al-Nabī ﷺ

[AI] "Jibril came to me and greeted me." Then he mentioned the hadith similarly, close to it. Abu Abd al-Rahman said: My father would not narrate from Amr ibn Khalid; that is, in his view, his hadith was worth nothing.

أحمد:١٢٤٨حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ شَيْبَانُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ حَبَّةَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبَّةَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ

«أَتَانِي جِبْرِيلُ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيَّ»، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ مِثْلَهُ، نَحْوَهُ. قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: وَكَانَ أَبِي لَا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ، يَعْنِي كَانَ حَدِيثُهُ لَا يَسْوَى عِنْدَهُ شَيْئًا.
