al-Baṣrī, one of the notable figures. Muʿammar followed him in narrating from Ibn al-Munkadir from Abū Hurayrah with a similar narration, except that he stopped it. It was recorded by al-Baghawī in "Sharḥ al-Sunnah" (3/400, Islamic Library manuscript). I said: The narration of ʿAbd al-Wārith is the most authentic in my view because, in addition to being trustworthy and reliable as mentioned in "al-Taqrīb," he was followed by Sufyān—who is Ibn ʿUyaynah—in raising it, and Muʿammar—who is Ibn Rāshid—followed him in omitting the unnamed man from the isnād. It is known that Ibn al-Munkadir heard from Abū Hurayrah, thus the isnād is connected, and the ḥadīth is established. All praise is due to Allāh, by whose grace good deeds are completed.

"He forbade sitting between the sun and the shade, and said: 'It is the seat of Shayṭān.'" It was recorded by Aḥmad (3/413): Bahz and ʿAffān narrated to us, they said: Hammām narrated to us. ʿAffān said in his narration: Qatādah narrated to us from Kathīr from Abū ʿIyāḍ from a man among the Companions of the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) forbade... I said: This isnād is authentic, its men are trustworthy, the men of the two Shaykhs except for Kathīr, who is Ibn Abī Kathīr al-Baṣrī, as stated by al-ʿAjlī and Ibn Ḥibbān, and a group of trustworthy narrators have narrated from him. Abū ʿIyāḍ's name is ʿAmr ibn al-Aswad al-ʿAnsī. ʿAbd Allāh ibn Rajāʾ followed them, saying: Hammām narrated to us with it, except that he named the Companion as Abū Hurayrah. It was recorded by al-Ḥākim (4/271) who said: "The isnād is authentic." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him. I said: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Rajāʾ is al-Ghadānī, truthful but errs slightly as mentioned by the ḥāfiẓ, and I fear he may have erred in naming the Companion as Abū Hurayrah, contradicting Aḥmad's two shaykhs: Bahz and ʿAffān, especially since Muḥammad ibn Kathīr followed them, narrating from Hammām with it. It was recorded by Abū Bakr al-Shāfiʿī in "Ḥadīth" (Q 4/2)
