and the ḥadīth was mentioned by al-Suyūṭī in "al-Jāmiʿ" from the narration of Ibn ʿAsākir, and al-Munāwī left it without comment. However, the ḥadīth is authentic, as its first part is agreed upon from the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿUmar, and the other part has supporting evidence from the ḥadīth of Anas and others, and it was previously mentioned (1224).

"Play, O Banū Arfadah! so that the Jews and Christians know that there is room in our religion." It was narrated by Abū ʿUbayd in "Gharīb al-Ḥadīth" (102/2) and al-Ḥārith ibn Abī Usāmah in "Musnad" (212 - its additions) through the route of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Isḥāq from al-Shaʿbī, who raised it: "that he passed by the people of al-Darkalah, and said: (he mentioned it) and while they were like that, ʿUmar came, and when they saw him, they were alarmed." I say: ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Isḥāq, who is Abū Shaybah al-Wāsiṭī, is weak, and it was connected by Baqiyyah from ʿAbd al-Wāḥid ibn Ziyād from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Isḥāq from al-Shaʿbī from ʿĀʾishah similarly. It was narrated by al-Daylamī (2/110). And Baqiyyah is a mudallis, and he narrated it with ʿanʿanah. However, the ḥadīth is authentic, as it was connected through another route from her, with Aḥmad (6/116 and 233) through the route of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī al-Zinād from his father, who said: ʿUrwah said to me: ʿĀʾishah said: the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said on that day: "Let the Jews know that there is room in our religion, I was sent with a ḥanīfiyyah that is easy." And this isnād is good. And it was narrated by al-Ḥumaydī (259) through the route of Yaʿqūb ibn Zayd al-Taymī from her with the wording: "Play, O Banū Arfadah..." And its men are trustworthy, except that this al-Taymī was not mentioned to have narrated from the Companions, except Abū Umāmah ibn Sahl ibn Ḥanīf, as he is counted among the Companions, having seen [the Prophet], but did not hear from the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), so I do not think al-Taymī heard from her. But the ḥadīth, with all these routes, is authentic without a doubt. Gharīb al-Ḥadīth: (al-Darkalah) Ibn al-Athīr said: "It is narrated with the dāl having a kasrah, the rāʾ having a fatḥah, and the kāf being silent, and it is narrated with the dāl having a kasrah, the rāʾ being silent, and the kāf having a kasrah and a fatḥah, and it is narrated with a qāf instead of the kāf, and it is a type of children's play. Ibn Durayd said: I think it is Abyssinian. And it was said it is dancing. (Banū Arfadah) is a title for the Abyssinians. And it was said it is the name of their ancient ancestor by which they are known. And their fāʾ is broken, and it may be opened
