Among Abū Yūsuf's particular companions was al-Ḥasan ibn Abī Mālik. He was trustworthy in transmission, abundant in learning, and extensive in his transmissions. Abū Yūsuf likened him to a camel loaded beyond its capacity and driven through mud: its foreleg would go this way, and then its hind leg that way, before it returned. Ibn Shujāʿ learned from him and others.
