'Ali ibn Muhammad narrated to us; Waki' narrated to us, from Sufyan. (H) Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us; Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us; Shu'bah narrated to us. They all reported from Abu Ishaq, from Silah ibn Zufar, from Hudhayfah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the people of Najran: I will send you a truly trustworthy man. The people eagerly craned their necks to see, and he sent Abu 'Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah.
