What is the position regarding a trustworthy narrator narrating alone from al-Zuhri?

The questioner : In the question itself, Shaykh, they also say: if a trustworthy narrator narrates alone from an imam like al-Zuhri, is this trustworthy narrator accepted?

The Shaykh: Allahu Akbar.

The questioner : They say, where are al-Zuhri's students!

The Shaykh : Glory be to Allah.

The questioner : Meaning, this trustworthy narrator is the only one who narrated it.

The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.

The questioner : And our Shaykh used to argue for them in some places, but when you read the words of, for example, Ibn Abi Hatim or Abu Hatim in *al-Ilal*, you see that there is an anomaly in the text. So when there is an anomaly in the text, he went back and said, meaning, after the anomaly in the text, he criticized it on the basis of this trustworthy narrator narrating it alone, while the other companions and those who narrated frequently from al-Zuhri did not.

The Shaykh : Meaning, it is not that he narrated something alone.

The questioner : Just the fact of narrating alone, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : No, it is only when there is an anomaly in the text that he goes back to this point.

The Shaykh : Well done.

The questioner : May Allah reward you.
