Sahih Muslim 674c
Malik b. Huwairith Abu Sulaiman reported: I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with other persons and we were young men of nearly equal age, and the rest of the hadith was transmitted like the hadith narrated before.
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ قَالَ لِي أَبُو قِلاَبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ الْحُوَيْرِثِ أَبُو سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي نَاسٍ وَنَحْنُ شَبَبَةٌ مُتَقَارِبُونَ . وَاقْتَصَّا جَمِيعًا الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ .
