Not graded Muttafaq ‘alayh (Bukhari and Muslim) Sahih Muslim intro-2

Narrator:Anas ibn Mālik

وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيَّةَ - عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيَمْنَعُنِي أَنْ أُحَدِّثَكُمْ حَدِيثًا كَثِيرًا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏

مَنْ تَعَمَّدَ عَلَىَّ كَذِبًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ ‏"

Zuhayr bin Harb narrated to me, Ismā’īl, rather, Ibn Ulayyah narrated to us, on authority of Abd il-Azīz ibn Suhayb, on authority of Anas bin Mālik, that he said:

‘Indeed what prevents me from relating to you a great number of Ḥadīth is that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah upon him, said: ‘Whoever intends to lie upon me, then let him take his seat in the Fire.’

Reported by Muslim (No. intro-2) and Al-Bukhari (No. 108).

An-Nawawi — Sharh Sahih Muslim

وَأَمَّا قَوْلُهُ : ( حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي اِبْنَ عُلَيَّةَ ) فَإِنَّمَا قَالَ : يَعْنِي لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَقَع فِي الرِّوَايَة اِبْن عُلَيَّةَ فَأَتَى بِيَعْنِي , وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَ بَيَان هَذَا فِي الْفُصُول , وَأَوْضَحْت هُنَاكَ مَقْصُوده , وَعُلَيَّةُ هِيَ أُمّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ , وَأَبُوهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَهْمِ بْن مُقْسِم الْأَسَدِيُّ أَسَدُ خُزَيْمَةَ مَوْلَاهُمْ , وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ بَصْرِيٌّ وَأَصْله مِنْ الْكُوفَةِ كُنْيَته أَبُو بِشْرٍ. قَالَ شُعْبَةُ : إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْن عُلَيَّةَ رَيْحَانَةُ الْفُقَهَاءِ وَسَيِّدُ الْمُحَدِّثِينَ وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْن سَعْدٍ : عُلَيَّةُ أُمُّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ هِيَ عُلَيَّةُ بِنْتُ حَسَّان مَوْلَاةٌ لِبَنِي شَيْبَانَ , وَكَانَتْ اِمْرَأَة نَبِيلَة عَا…
