506 - And Muhammad ibn Abi Harun informed me that Muthanna al-Anbari narrated to them that he said to Abu 'Abd Allah [Ahmad ibn Hanbal]: 'There is a man who is a narrator of hadith, from whom hadith is written down, who says: "Whoever testifies that the Ten are in Paradise is an innovator." Abu 'Abd Allah regarded this as a grave matter and said: "Perhaps he is ignorant and does not know; he should be instructed."
