Are Ahmad Sadiq al-Ghumari and Ahmad Shakir equal in the craft of hadith?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Abu Ishaq: But, our Shaykh, regarding Shaykh Ahmad al-Ghumari, you mentioned to us in our first session with you that you had not met anyone like him; meaning, he is to Shaykh Ahmad Shakir in terms of the craft of hadith.

The Shaykh : Look, the matter is different now; that one was in the field of me exploring all his depths.
Abu Ishaq: Al-Ghumari.

The Shaykh : Yes, al-Ghumari; because I asked him questions and he answered me;The Shaykh : Ahmad closed the door between me and him; butThe Shaykh : Ahmad has a special strength in the Musnad, and his knowledge there surpasses all the Ghumaris; because what efforts do the Ghumaris have? They only have reports and treatises; and then Sufism and fanaticism for the Maliki school appear in them.
And by the way, today I am reading a treatise by Abdullah al-Ghumari where he mentions, by the way, that there are two opinions on the issue of horse meat: permissibility and prohibition; and he said that the stronger one is.
Abu Ishaq: Prohibition?

The Shaykh : Prohibition of horse meat, and that is the stronger opinion; I tried to recall in my mind what evidence led him to prefer this opinion, even though it is in Sahih al-Bukhari and others, from the hadith of Asma bint Abi Bakr that they ate horse meat in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and permission was given to eat horse meat; so, glory be to Allah, I said this is due to the Maliki school, yes; so the point is that the reports in terms of authorship do not appear in the books of all the Ghumaris as they appear in the books of Ahmad Shakir (may Allah have mercy on him); then his jurisprudence differs from the jurisprudence of these people; the jurisprudence of the Ghumaris is not Salafi jurisprudence at all, it is wind-based jurisprudence with no guidelines or rules; look, for example, the beautification of the adhan in the recommendation of the takbir in prayer, iqamah, and adhan, Allahu Akbar, fourteen centuries of Muslims all on the Sunnah; those who abandoned all this inheritance, rather this mass transmission, by a reckless, crooked rational deduction, is that
I shall be pre-eminent among the descendants of Adam أنا سيد ولد آدم
Sunan Abi Dawud 4673Sahih (Al-Albani)
. What prevents us from saying "And I bear witness that Muhammad, excuse me, that our master Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," what prevents it since he is so; the persuasion in the validity of the prayer is behind what, the radio; tomorrow they will link our prayer to the Imam of Makkah by their broadcast there and close all the mosques.
Laughter.The Shaykh : And the brother students.
The student : The comprehensive collection, O Shaykh...

The Shaykh : I did not have an opinion about it, then I learned that these parts are not based on one person, many of those who annotate.
Abu Ishaq: Al-Ghumari did only one part.

The Shaykh : I have no idea about it; but those whose annotations I came across are very superficial, there is no knowledge in them; as for al-Ghumari's annotations, I have no idea about them; in which part do you mention?
Abu Ishaq: The seventh part.

The Shaykh : The seventh.
Abu Ishaq: The seventh, I think; because in the seventh, in the hadith of the slave girl, he interprets it, saying some narrators made a mistake in the seventh part, I think page one hundred and thirty-five or so.

The Shaykh : What does he say.
Abu Ishaq: He says that the slave girl did not intend to say that Allah is in the sky, or the interpretation of the hadith of the slave girl by al-Kawthari's interpretation.

The Shaykh : Ah, it is al-Kawthari, a wicked Ash'ari.
