قيل: يا رسول الله: عمن يكتب العلم بعدك؟ قال: عن علي، وسلمان.
It was said, “‘O Messenger of Allah, from who should knowledge be written after you?” He said, “From ‘Ali and Salman.”
Ibn ‘Adi and others narrate this hadith — from Ahmed ibn Abi Rawh — Yazid ibn Harun narrated to us — Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us — from Thabit — from Anas…[1]
Regarding Ahmed ibn Abi Rawh al Baghdadi, Ibn ‘Adi said, “He was in Jurjan; his ahadith are not correct.”

After mentioning this hadith, al Dhahabi said, “This hadith is fabricated with this chain of transmission.”[3]
