then he narrated with an authentic chain from al-Ḥajjāj ibn al-Ḥajjāj from Qatādah from ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAmr from Abū Hurayrah as a marfūʿ ḥadīth.

"Sleep is the brother of death, and the inhabitants of Paradise do not sleep." It is narrated from the ḥadīth of Jābir and ʿAbd Allāh ibn Abī Awfá. 1 - As for the ḥadīth of Jābir, it is narrated from him by Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir, and there are two paths from him: the first is from Sufyān al-Thawrī from him with this, and there is disagreement about it. Some narrated it from him as musnad, while others narrated it from him as mursal. A - As for the musnad, its narrators are five: the first is ʿAbd Allāh ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Mughīrah who said, "Sufyān narrated to us with this." It was recorded by Tamām al-Rāzī in "al-Fawāʾid" (4/79/1), al-ʿAqīlī in "al-Ḍuʿafāʾ" (p. 221), Ibn ʿAdī in "al-Kāmil" (fol. 221/2), Abū Nuʿaym in "al-Ḥilyah" (7/90) and "Ṣifat al-Jannah" (fol. 128/2), as well as al-Ḍiyāʾ al-Maqdisī in "Ṣifat al-Jannah" (3/84/1) through the path of al-Miqdām ibn Dāwūd from him with this. Al-ʿAqīlī said: "This Ibn al-Mughīrah contradicts in some of his ḥadīth and narrates what has no basis, and this is among what he was contradicted in." Then he presented it from the path of a group from Sufyān as mursal, as will be explained. I say: Al-Miqdām ibn Dāwūd is also weak, rather he is severely weak, but his teacher is not better than him, as al-Dhahabī accused him of fabrication, and Abū Nuʿaym said after the ḥadīth: "ʿAbd Allāh was unique in narrating it": and he missed the following corroborations. The second is al-Ḥusayn ibn Ḥafṣ who said: "Sufyān narrated to us with this." It was recorded by Abū al-Ḥasan al-Ḥarbī in "al-Ḥarbiyyāt" (2/47/1-2) and Abū al-Shaykh in "Tārīkh Aṣbahān" (pp. 157 and 192) through the path of al-Naḍr ibn Hishām who said, "al-Ḥusayn ibn Ḥafṣ narrated to us with this." Abū al-Shaykh said: "No one narrated this ḥadīth from al-Ḥusayn ibn Ḥafṣ except al-Naḍr."
