English Translation
'Uqbah ibn 'Amr said: "I do not consider any man more knowledgeable about what was revealed to Muhammad (peace be upon him) than 'Abdullah." Abu Musa said: "If that is said, then indeed he used to hear when others were not allowed to hear, and he used to enter when others were not allowed to enter."
