كَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِسْوَرٍ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ الْمَدَائِنِيِّ، وَعَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ، وَعَبْدِ الْقُدُّوسِ الشَّامِيِّ، وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمَصْلُوبِ، وَغِيَاثِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَسُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَبِي دَاوُدَ النَّخَعِيِّ، وَأَشْبَاهِهِمْ مِمَّنِ اتُّهِمَ بِوَضْعِ الْأَحَادِيثِ وَتَوْلِيدِ الْأَخْبَارِ
Translation: Muslim names ʿAbd Allāh b. Miswar Abū Jaʿfar al-Madāʾinī, ʿAmr b. Khālid, ʿAbd al-Quddūs al-Shāmī, Muḥammad b. Saʿīd al-Maṣlūb, Ghiyāth b. Ibrāhīm, Sulaymān b. ʿAmr Abū Dāwūd al-Nakhaʿī, and comparable persons accused of inventing hadith and generating reports.

Fabrication means deliberately composing an attributed report, not a mere lapse of memory. Al-Nawawī identifies the criticized ʿAbd al-Quddūs al-Shāmī here as ʿAbd al-Quddūs ibn Ḥabīb. He distinguishes him from ʿAbd al-Quddūs ibn al-Ḥajjāj, whom he describes as trustworthy. A judgment concerning one must not be transferred to the other merely because their names resemble each other.
