Question

Can this narration be quoted?

Sayyiduna Zubayr ibnul ‘Awwam (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) reports that on one occasion, Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) turned his gaze towards Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (radiyallahu ‘anhu) and mentioned:

“This person has been granted emancipation from the fire of Jahannam by Allah Ta’ala”

It was on that occasion that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (radiyallahu ‘anhu) received the title ‘Atiq.

 

Answer

Imam Bazzar (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration. ‘Allamah Haythami (rahimahullah) has declared the narrators reliable (thiqat).

(Musnad Bazzar; Al Bahruz Zakkhar, Hadith: 2213, Majma’uz Zawaid, vol. 9, pg. 40)

Imam Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) has recorded a similar narration. See here.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

مسند البزار: البحر الزخار:
(٢٢١٣)  
حدثنا محمد بن الوليد الكرخي، قال: نا حامد بن يحيى البلخي، قال: نا سفيان بن عيينة، عن زياد بن سعد، عن عامر بن عبد الله بن الزبير، عن أبيه، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم نظر إلى أبي بكر رضي الله عنه، فقال: «هذا عتيق الله من النار» فيومئذ سمي عتيقا وكان اسمه قبل ذلك عبد الله بن عثمان.

مجمع الزوائد ومنبع الفوائد: (٩/ ٤٠)
عن عبد الله بن الزبير: «أن النبي – صلى الله عليه وسلم – نظر إلى أبي بكر – رضي الله عنه – فقال: « هذا عتيق الله من النار ». فمن يومئذ سمي: عتيقا، وكان قبل ذلك اسمه: عبد الله بن عثمان».
رواه البزار، والطبراني بنحوه، ورجالهما ثقات.
