محمد بن الحسن (report 310; identity unresolved)

Abū Ḥafṣ ʿAbdān ibn Yūsuf related to us: Ibrāhīm ibn Muḥammad al-Balkhī related to us: Muḥammad ibn Ḥafṣ al-Balkhī related to us, from Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥasan, who said: When al-Ḥasan ibn ʿUmāra finished washing Abū Ḥanīfa—may God have mercy on them both—he said, ‘May God have mercy on you. You were among the most learned of us in jurisprudence, the most devoted in worship, the most ascetic, and those who combined the most good qualities. When you were buried, you were buried in goodness and adherence to the Sunna. You have wearied those who come after you and put the Qurʾān reciters to shame.’
