21 – Nuqayʿ b. al-Ḥārith, Abū Dāwud, al-Sabīʿī, al-Hamdānī. Narrated from Abū Barza Naḍla b. Abī ʿAbdillāh al-Aslamī, and narrated from Abū Jaʿfar عليه السلام . In his ḥadīth there is (material that is) not recognized, and what I regard (to be appropriate) is to halt with his ḥadīth. And it is permissible for him to be brought out as a witness.
