how is it then, when alongside them is the narration of Saʿīd ibn Abī ʿArūbah and Shaybān ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān as previously mentioned. Rather, Shuʿbah even agreed with them on it in a narration reported by al-Tirmidhī, who authenticated it, but he deviated from all of them in another wording, saying: "three" instead of "ten." This is explained in the other chain (1336). Then I saw that Shuʿbah narrated that phrase in another way with the wording "from Sūrah al-Kahf." He did not say "beginning" nor "end," as if he was uncertain between them. Al-Khaṭīb reported it from him in this manner in "Tārīkh" (1/290).

I said: Al-Bukhārī narrated it in this manner in "Tafsīr," and it is a portion of the lengthy ḥadīth of Abū Saʿīd regarding the vision of Allāh in the Hereafter, which he narrated in full in "Tawḥīd" (13/362-364): Yaḥyá ibn Bukayr narrated to us: al-Layth narrated it with this wording:
