and I have found supporting evidence for the ḥadīth that strengthens it. Al-Ṭaḥāwī said (1/395): Abū Umayyah narrated to us, Muḥammad ibn Sābiq narrated to us, Isrāʾīl narrated to us (in the original: Abū Isrāʾīl) from Manṣūr, from Abū al-Ḥajjāj, from a freedman of Abū Qatādah, from the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), who said: and he mentioned it in full. I said: This is a strong witness; all its narrators are trustworthy except for the freedman of Abū Qatādah, whom I did not recognize. However, if he was a Companion, then his anonymity does not harm the ḥadīth because all the Companions are considered just, as is well known. It is possible that he was one of them because the one narrating from him, Abū al-Ḥajjāj, is Mujāhid ibn Jabr, the well-known Successor. Ibn Abī Ḥātim mentioned it in "al-ʿIlal" (2/31) through the route of ʿUbayd ibn Isḥāq, from Miskīn ibn Dīnār al-Taymī, from Mujāhid: Zayd al-Jurashī told me, he said: I heard the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) say: and he mentioned it. He said: "My father said: This is a rejected ḥadīth." I said: Its defect is this ʿUbayd, who is the perfume seller, and the majority have deemed him weak. There has been significant disagreement regarding the isnād of this ḥadīth from Mujāhid, which Abū Nuʿaym comprehensively covered in "al-Ḥilyah" (3/307-309). The ḥadīth has appeared in some of its routes in full, including the route of this ʿUbayd and others, and some of it is in "al-Musnad" (3/28, 44). In others, only the addition at its end is mentioned, which al-Ṭaḥāwī has also recorded (1/393-394). This addition has been narrated from Abū Hurayrah, but it is not reliably preserved from him, as I have clarified in the other book (1462). In summary, the ḥadīth with these routes and supporting evidence does not fall below the level of ḥasan
