وعن أبي سعيد سمرة بن جندب رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ لقد كنت على عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم غلامًا ، فكنت أحفظ عنه، فما يمنعني من القول إلا أن ههنا رجالاً أسن مني‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏ ‏.‏

I was a boy during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and used to commit to my memory what he said, but I do not narrate what I preserved because there were among us people who were older than me..
