حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ الطَّائِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَوَّامِ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ زَهْدَمٍ الْجَرْمِيِّ، قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي مُوسَى وَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ دَجَاجًا فَقَالَ ادْنُ فَكُلْ فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَأْكُلُهُ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ . وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنْ زَهْدَمٍ وَلاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ زَهْدَمٍ . وَأَبُو الْعَوَّامِ هُوَ عِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ .

Zayd ibn Akhzam al-Ta’i narrated to us: Abu Qutaybah narrated to us, from Abu al-‘Awwam, from Qatadah, from Zahdam al-Jarmi, who said: I entered upon Abu Musa while he was eating chicken. He said: ‘Come closer and eat, for I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) eating it.’ Abu ‘Isa said: This hadith is hasan (good). It has been reported by more than one route from Zahdam, but we know it only through the report of Zahdam. Abu al-‘Awwam is ‘Imran al-Qattan.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The compiler says that the report has multiple routes from Zahdam, while the report is known only through Zahdam as its common transmitter.

The English witness omits the chain from Zayd ibn Akhzam through Abu Qutaybah, Abu al-‘Awwam, and Qatadah.
Should the full chain be included?
