حدثنا عبد الله حدثني أبي ثنا وكيع ثنا حماد بن سلمة عن أبي العشراء عن أبيه قال قلت : يا رسول الله أما تكون الذكاة الا في الحلق أو اللبة قال لو طعنت في فخذها لأجزأك الذهبي في " الميزان " لا يدرى من هو ولا من أبوه

Comment of Shuʿayb al-Arnaʾūṭ (Qurṭuba edition)

إسناده ضعيف لجهالة أبي العشراء وأبيه فقد قال

Quoted as he wrote it. It is his assessment — Hidayah24 does not grade hadith.

The printed Musnad begins with the book’s own transmission: «ḥaddathanā ʿAbd Allāh» is Aḥmad’s son ʿAbd Allāh (d. 290), who narrates the book from him, and «ḥaddathanī abī» is Aḥmad himself; the hadith’s own chain follows them.

Names are exactly as printed. A narrator is identified only where that is certain; tapping any other name searches for the possible men. Grades are the rijāl works’ — reliable narrators alone do not make a hadith ṣaḥīḥ (irregularity and hidden defects are weighed too).
