the forearms in tayammum, and for this reason, I included it in my book "Weak Sunan Abī Dāwūd" (no. 58). (Benefit) Since "al-Salām" is one of the names of Allāh, as will be mentioned in ḥadīth (1894), the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) disliked mentioning it without purification. This indicates that reciting the Quran without purification is even more disliked, so it is not appropriate to assert the permissibility of its recitation by someone in a state of impurity, as some of our brothers from the people of ḥadīth do.

- "ʿAmmār was never given a choice between two matters except that he chose the more guided of them." It was narrated by al-Tirmidhī (4/345), Ibn Mājah (1/66), al-Ḥākim (3/388), and al-Khaṭīb (11/288) through the route of ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Sīyāh from Ḥabīb ibn Abī Thābit from ʿAṭāʾ ibn Yasār from ʿĀʾishah who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: and she mentioned it. Al-Tirmidhī said: "A ḥasan gharīb ḥadīth; we do not know it except through the ḥadīth of ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Sīyāh, who is a Kūfan shaykh and people have narrated from him." I say: He is trustworthy, from the men of the two Shaykhs [al-Bukhārī and Muslim], and he did not narrate it alone. Imām Aḥmad (6/113) said: Abū Aḥmad narrated to us, saying: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ḥabīb narrated to us from Ḥabīb ibn Abī Thābit from ʿAṭāʾ ibn Yasār who said: "A man came and spoke ill of ʿAlī and ʿAmmār (raḍiya Allāhu ʿanhumā) in the presence of ʿĀʾishah, so she said: As for ʿAlī, I will not say anything about him, but as for ʿAmmār, I heard the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) say: (He is not given a choice between two matters...)" I say: And this ʿAbd Allāh is Ibn Ḥabīb ibn Abī Thābit, and he is also trustworthy from the men of Muslim. Thus, the isnād is authentic except for the ʿanʿanah of Ḥabīb, for he was accused of tadlīs, but it is certainly authentic due to what follows. It was also narrated by al-Ḥākim (3/388) and Aḥmad (1/389 and 445) from ʿAmmār ibn Muʿāwiyah al-Dahnī from Sālim ibn Abī al-Jaʿd al-Ashjaʿī from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Masʿūd who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: "The son of Sumayyah was never presented with two matters except that he chose the more guided of them" and he said:
