KNOWLEDGEABLE YOUTH H H 359 "I was just a boy during the time of the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, and committed to memory what he said, but I do not relate that which I committed to memory because there are men amongst us who are older than myself." R 359 Muslim with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Samurah son of Jundab who related this.
358- وعن أَبي سعيد سَمُرة بنِ جُندب رضي الله عنه ، قَالَ : لقد كنت عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم غُلاماً ، فَكُنْتُ أحْفَظُ عَنْهُ ، فَمَا يَمْنَعُنِي مِنَ القَوْلِ إلاَّ أنَّ هاهُنَا رِجَالاً هُمْ أسَنُّ مِنِّي . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيهِ .
