It was narrated from Ibn Tâwus that his father said: “I heard Ibn ‘Abbás saying: ‘We used to memorize Ahddith, and Ahadith were memorized from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ (S.A.W.W) But if you go to the extremes of either exaggeration or negligence (in narrating Ahadith), there is no way we can trust your Ahâdith.” (Sahih)
