Sunan Abi DawudHadith Number 3959
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُخْتَارِ - حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَمَعْنَاهُ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ فَقَالَ لَهُ قَوْلاً شَدِيدًا .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Abu Qilabah through a different chain of narrators on the authority of 'Imran b. Husain to the same effect. But in this version he did not mention "He spoke severely of them."
