The questioner : You mentioned the hadith of Abu Ya'la regarding the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taking Safiyyah as his wife and the wedding feast, and you stated therein that the wedding feast is for three days after the consummation. We understood from this that it is after the consummation, meaning after the first three days of the consummation, and you cited the narration of Abu Ya'la as evidence.
The Shaykh : Excuse me, did you understand this?
The questioner : We understood that the wedding feast is three days after the consummation.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : In Abu Ya'la's narration, there are two chains: the chain of Humayd al-Tawil, with his concealment of a defect in the chain, which is well known, where he says; and the second narration is from Abu Ja'far al-Razi, who said, after saying , he said . It is understood from the first that the wedding feast was three days after the consummation, and it is understood from the second that the wedding feast lasted three days, along with the speaker among them, such as Abu Ja'far. And I do not know if the first chain is authentic in this hadith, and secondly.
The Shaykh : Abu Ja'far has poor memory.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : So he is not cited as evidence when he is the sole narrator, so how much less when he contradicts others? Where is the problem?
The questioner : Do you mean you take the narration of Humayd even though he is one who conceals defects in the chain?
The Shaykh : It is not the important point; the necessary question is: from whom is the concealment? From whom is Humayd's hadith?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, like that. Do you remember this?
The questioner : Yes...
The Shaykh : Ah, so they mentioned that when Humayd narrates from Anas, if he did not hear it from him, he only heard it from Thabit. In that case, it is the same whether he mentions Thabit between him and Anas or omits mentioning him, because his concealment of defects is limited to his narration from Anas, and between them is Thabit al-Bunani, not anyone else.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from Khaybar, and when he was between Madinah and Khaybar, he took Safiyyah as his wife, so he stayed with her for three days and held a wedding feast.
رجع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من خيبر حتى إذا كان بين المدينة وخيبر بنى بصفية فأقام عليها ثلاثة أيام وأولمHe married Safiyyah.
تزوج بصفيةAnd he made the wedding feast for three days.
