And it was narrated to me by 'Amr al-Naqid, who said: Hashim ibn al-Qasim narrated to us. And it was narrated to us by Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, who said: Shababah ibn Sawwar narrated to us. Both of them narrated from Shu'bah with this chain of transmission, similar to the hadith of Yazid ibn Zuray'. In their narration, there is no mention of the man saying: "There is no man after the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, who is better than him."
