Imaam Ibn Hibbaan reported in Al-Majrooheen from Amr Ibn Muhammad An-Naaqib that he heard a man asking Imaam Wakee Ibn Jarraah a question, saying: ”Do you know the hadeeth of Sa-eed Ibn Ubaid At-Tanaaqosee transmitted on the authority of Shabi, about a man who performed hajj for another person and then perform hajj for himself?” Imaam Wakee asked him, saying: ”Who narrated the Hadeeth?” He said: ”It was narrated by Wahb Ibn Ismaa-eel.” So Imaam Wakee said: ”Wahb is a righteous man, but the affair of hadeeth is dependent on knowledge of the condition of its narrators and this has its men.” [End of Quote: This incident was related by Shaikh Abdullaah Bukhaari in At-Taleeqaat Ar-Radiyyah alal Mandhoomah Al-Bayqooniyyah Lesson 2]
