Hazrat Masaafi’ bin Shaybah narrates that I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) swear three times, and he put his fingers in his ears and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say,“Indeed, the Black Stone and Maqam Ibrahim...”(He narrated a hadith similar to the one mentioned above.) Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I do not know about the criticism or praise (jarh wa ta'dil) regarding Abu Raja. I do not consider the hadith of such narrators as proof or evidence.
