"and it is a good isnād." I said: It includes ʿAṭāʾ ibn al-Sāʾib, who experienced confusion, but he is acceptable in supporting narrations. Ibn Abī al-Dunyā also recorded it through his route, as did Ibn Ḥibbān (2609). There is a fourth supporting narration from Yazīd al-Raqāshī from Anas. Ibn Abī al-Dunyā also recorded it. And a fifth from al-Walīd ibn Ḥuṣayn al-Shāmī, who said: Luqmān ibn ʿĀmir informed me from Abū Umāmah Ṣudī ibn ʿAjlān al-Bāhilī, raised [to the Prophet] with an addition explaining His saying: (Ghayy) and (Āthām). Ibn Abī al-Dunyā also recorded it, saying: al-Faḍl ibn Isḥāq narrated to us, saying: Shabābah ibn Sawwār narrated to us, saying: al-Walīd ibn Ḥuṣayn al-Shāmī informed me... I said: This isnād has all trustworthy narrators except for al-Walīd ibn Ḥuṣayn al-Shāmī, who is nicknamed (Sharqī ibn Quṭāmī); al-Sājī and others considered him weak. Al-Mundhirī said in "al-Targhīb" (4/231): "al-Ṭabarānī and al-Bayhaqī narrated it as marfūʿ, and others narrated it mawqūf from Abū Umāmah, which is more authentic." Al-Haythamī said (10/389): "al-Ṭabarānī narrated it, and it includes weak narrators whom Ibn Ḥibbān considered reliable, but said they made mistakes." I said: The isnād of Ibn Abī al-Dunyā includes only al-Walīd ibn Ḥuṣayn, as al-Faḍl ibn Isḥāq, who is Abū al-ʿAbbās al-Bazzār al-Dūrī, was mentioned by al-Khaṭīb in "al-Tārīkh" (12/360-361) and narrated from al-Sarrāj that he is trustworthy and reliable. He died in the year two hundred and forty-two
