"Ḥanish al-Raḥabī is weak." And I say: Ḥanish is his nickname, and his name is al-Ḥusayn ibn Qays. In "Taqrīb," it is said that he is "abandoned." However, he has two followers from ʿIkrimah. The first is Ibrāhīm ibn Abī ʿAblah, who is trustworthy and among the narrators of the two Shaykhs [al-Bukhārī and Muslim]. The other is Khuṣayf, who is truthful but has poor memory and became confused towards the end of his life. Thus, the ḥadīth is considered good with these follow-ups. The wording of Khuṣayf's ḥadīth is lengthy, and its text is: "Whoever assists in falsehood to invalidate a truth with falsehood is absolved from the covenant of Allāh and His Messenger. Whoever approaches the authority of Allāh on earth to humiliate it, Allāh will humiliate his neck on the Day of Resurrection—or he said until the Day of Resurrection—along with what is stored for him of disgrace on the Day of Resurrection. The authority of Allāh on earth is the Book of Allāh and the sunnah of His Prophet. Whoever appoints a man while finding someone better and more knowledgeable of the Book of Allāh and the sunnah of His Prophet has betrayed Allāh, His Messenger, and all the believers. Whoever is entrusted with the affairs of the Muslims, Allāh will not look after his needs until he looks after their needs and fulfills their rights. Whoever consumes a dirham of usury bears the sin equivalent to thirty-six acts of fornication in Islam. Whoever's flesh grows from unlawful earnings, the Fire is more deserving of it." It was narrated by al-Khaṭīb (6/76) through the chain of Ibrāhīm ibn Ziyād al-Qurashī from Khuṣayf from ʿIkrimah from Ibn ʿAbbās as a marfūʿ ḥadīth. This isnād is weak due to the weakness of Khuṣayf, as previously explained. And Ibrāhīm ibn Ziyād al-Qurashī, al-Khaṭīb narrated from Ibn Maʿīn that he said: "I do not know him." In "al-Mīzān," it is said: "al-Bukhārī said: His isnād is not authentic. I say: And who is he known from?" I say: He was followed in part of the ḥadīth. It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Ṣaghīr" (44) through the chain of Saʿīd ibn Raḥmah al-Miṣṣīṣī who reported from Muḥammad ibn Ḥumayr from Ibrāhīm ibn Abī ʿAblah from ʿIkrimah as a marfūʿ ḥadīth, limited to the first and last sentences and the one before it, except that he said: "equivalent to thirty-three acts of fornication," and he said: "Saʿīd ibn Raḥmah was unique in narrating it."
" قلت حنش الرحبي ضعيف ". وأقول: وحنش لقبه، واسمه الحسين بن قيس، قال في " التقريب ": إنه " متروك ". لكن له متابعان عن عكرمة. الأول: إبراهيم بن أبي عبلة وهو ثقة من رجال الشيخين. والآخر: خصيف وهو صدوق سيىء الحفظ، خلط بآخره، فالحديث حسن بهذه المتابعات ولفظ حديث خصيف مطول ونصه: " من أعان على باطل ليدحض بباطله حقا فقد برىء من ذمة الله وذمة رسوله ومن مشى إلى سلطان الله في الأرض ليذله أذل الله رقبته يوم القيامة - أو قال إلى يوم القيامة - مع ما يدخر له من خزي يوم القيامة، وسلطان الله في الأرض كتاب الله وسنة نبيه، ومن استعمل رجلا وهو يجد غيره خيرا منه وأعلم منه بكتاب الله وسنة نبيه فقد خان الله ورسوله وجميع المؤمنين ومن ولي من أمر المسلمين شيئا لم ينظر الله له في حاجته حتى ينظر في حاجتهم ويؤدي إليهم حقوقهم، ومن أكل درهم ربا كان عليه مثل إثم ست وثلاثين زنية في الإسلام، ومن نبت لحمه من سحت فالنار أولى به ". أخرجه الخطيب (٦ / ٧٦) من طريق إبراهيم بن زياد القرشي عن خصيف عن عكرمة عن ابن عباس مرفوعا. وهذا سند ضعيف لضعف خصيف كما سبق بيانه قريبا. وإبراهيم بن زياد القرشي، روى الخطيب عن ابن معين أنه قال: " لا أعرفه ". وفي الميزان: " قال البخاري: لا يصح إسناده، قلت: ولا يعرف من ذا؟ ". قلت: وقد توبع على بعض الحديث، أخرجه الطبراني في " الصغير " (٤٤) من طريق سعيد بن رحمة المصيصي حدثنا محمد بن حمير عن إبراهيم بن أبي عبلة عن عكرمة مرفوعا مقتصرا على الجملة الأولى والأخيرة والتي قبلها، إلا أنه قال: " مثل ثلاث وثلاثين زنية "، وقال: " تفرد به سعيد بن رحمة ".
