[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do you not prevent the mention of the wicked? Mention him for what is in him, so that the people may recognize him and be cautious of him." This is a hadith that is attributed to Jarud ibn Yazid al-Naysaburi, and the people of knowledge criticized it. I heard Aba Abdullah al-Hafiz say, "I heard Aba Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ya'qub al-Hafiz, more than once, say, 'When Abu Bakr al-Jarudi passed by the grave of his grandfather in the burial place of Husayn ibn Mu'adh, he would say, 'Oh father, if you had not narrated a hadith from Bahz ibn Hakim, I would have visited you.'" The sheikh said, "And a group of weak people have stolen it from him and attributed it to Bahz ibn Hakim, but it is not authentic."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَرْعَوُونَ عَنْ ذِكْرِ الْفَاجِرِ؟ اذْكُرُوهُ بِمَا فِيهِ كَيْ يَعْرِفَهُ النَّاسُ وَيَحْذَرَهُ النَّاسُ فَهَذَا حَدِيثُ يُعْرَفُ بِالْجَارُودِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ النَّيْسَابُورِيِّ وَأَنْكَرَهُ عَلَيْهِ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ بِالْحَدِيثِ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ يَعْقُوبَ الْحَافِظَ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ يَقُولُ كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْجَارُودِيُّ إِذَا مَرَّ بِقَبْرِ جَدِّهِ فِي مَقْبَرَةِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ يَقُولُ يَا أَبَةِ لَوْ لَمْ تُحَدِّثْ بِحَدِيثِ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ لَزُرْتُكَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَقَدْ سَرَقَهُ عَنْهُ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ الضُّعَفَاءِ فَرَوَوْهُ عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ وَلَمْ يَصِحَّ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ
