Sahih Muslim # 51 (English)

دَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ، قَالَ: كُنَّا نَأْتِي أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيَّ وَنَحْنُ غِلْمَةٌ أَيْفَاعٌ، فَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَنَا: «لَا تُجَالِسُوا الْقُصَّاصَ غَيْرَ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَشَقِيقًا»، قَالَ: «وَكَانَ شَقِيقٌ هَذَا يَرَى رَأْيَ الْخَوَارِجِ، وَلَيْسَ بِأَبِي وَائِلٍ»

Abū Kāmil al-Jahdarī narrated to us,

Hammād- and he is Ibn Zayd- narrated to us, he said Āsim [bin Bahdalah] narrated to us, he said:
‘We would catch up with Abū Abd ar-Rahman as-Sulamī and at the time we were young men, so he would say to us: ‘Do not sit with story-tellers other than Abūl-Ahwas and beware of Shaqīq [Abū Abd ar-Rahīm]’. [Muslim] said: ‘This Shaqīq held the view of the Khawārij and is not Abū Wā’il [Shaqīq bin Salamah, the righteous Tabi’ī]’.
