and there is another supporting narration for the ḥadīth from Ibn ʿAbbās, raised with the wording: "Do not cover the walls... Ask Allāh with the palms of your hands..." and at the end, it adds: "When you finish, wipe your faces with them." It was recorded by Abū Dāwūd (1485) through the chain of ʿAbd Allāh ibn Yaʿqūb ibn Isḥāq from someone who narrated to him from Muḥammad ibn Kaʿb al-Qurẓī, who said that ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbbās narrated to me. He said: "This ḥadīth has been narrated through various chains from Muḥammad ibn Kaʿb, all of which are weak, and this chain is the best among them, yet it is also weak." I said: Its defect is the unnamed man, whom Ibn Mājah and others named as Ṣāliḥ ibn Ḥassān, as I clarified in my commentary on "al-Mishkāt" (2243), and he is very weak, thus this addition is objectionable. I have not found any supporting narration for it so far. It seems for this reason that al-ʿIzz ibn ʿAbd al-Salām said, "Only an ignorant person wipes his face." Therefore, al-Munāwī's objection to him is unfounded, especially since this addition, even if it had a weak chain, could not be acted upon because it involves a legal ruling, which is the recommendation of the mentioned wiping, so how can it be when it is very weak? (Note) The ḥadīth of Ibn ʿUmar, raised with the wording: "When he raised his hands in supplication, he would not lower them until he wiped his face with them," is not suitable as supporting evidence for the addition. Because it includes someone accused of fabrication, and Abū Zurʿah said: "A rejected ḥadīth, I fear it has no basis." As I clarified in the commentary on "al-Mishkāt" (2245). Nor is the ḥadīth of al-Sāʾib ibn Yazīd from his father similar to it. It was recorded by Abū Dāwūd (1492). Because it includes Ibn Lahīʿah, who is weak, from Ḥafṣ ibn Hāshim
