what you said, then you smiled at him and were friendly towards him, and you said to so-and-so what you said, but I did not see you treat him as you treated the other? He said: O ʿĀʾishah, indeed among the worst of people is the one whose evil is feared." I said: It was recorded by Ibn Wahb in "al-Jāmiʿ" (69 - 70), Aḥmad (6/158), and al-Bukhārī in "al-Adab al-Mufrad" (338), and its chain is according to the conditions of Muslim, except that Fulaīḥ and his son are weak in it.

- "Faith and disbelief do not coexist in a person's heart, nor do lying and truthfulness coexist together, nor do betrayal and trust coexist together." Narrated by Ibn Wahb in "al-Jāmiʿ" (73 and 83): He informed me from Ibn Lahīʿah from Abū al-Aswad from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Rāfiʿ from Abū Hurayrah as a marfūʿ ḥadīth. I said: This is a sound chain of narration, all its men are trustworthy.

- "They do not coexist (meaning fear and hope) in a servant's heart in such a situation (meaning at the time of death) except that Allāh grants him what he hopes for and protects him from what he fears." Narrated by al-Tirmidhī (1/183 - 184) and he graded it as good, Ibn Mājah (4261), and Ibn Abī al-Dunyā in "al-Muḥtadarīn" (5/1-2) and in "Ḥusn al-Ẓann" (186/1) from a route from Sayyār ibn Ḥātim who said: Jaʿfar ibn Sulaymān informed us, he said Thābit al-Bunānī narrated to us from Anas ibn Mālik who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) entered upon a young man who was dying, and he said: How do you find yourself? He said: I hope in Allāh, O Messenger of Allāh, and I fear my sins. The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: and he mentioned it. I said: This is a good chain as al-Mundhirī said (4/141), and its men are trustworthy, the men of Muslim, except for Sayyār ibn Ḥātim who is truthful but has errors, as in "al-Taqrīb". He was followed by Yaḥyá ibn ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd al-Ḥammānī from Ibn Baṭṭah in "al-Ibānah" (6/59/1), thus the ḥadīth is authenticated, and all praise is due to Allāh by whose grace good deeds are completed. It has a supporting narration from ʿUbayd ibn ʿUmayr as a mursal ḥadīth. But in it is Abū Rabīʿah Zayd ibn ʿAwf who is abandoned. Narrated by Ibn Abī al-Dunyā in "al-Maraḍ wa-al-Kaffārāt" (folio 169/2).
