It was recorded by Tamām in "al-Fawāʾid" (p. 172/1-2), Ibn ʿAsākir in "Tārīkh Dimashq" (4/99/1 and 8/37/1), and likewise Abū Bakr al-Shāfiʿī in "al-Ghaylāniyyāt" as mentioned in "al-Laʾāliʾ al-Maṣnūʿah" (2/29). I said: The first is more authentic, for I did not find a biography for this Ibrāhīm. Ḥubaysh was mentioned by Ibn ʿAsākir, and he did not mention anything about him except this ḥadīth. The ḥadīth was cited by Ibn al-Jawzī in "al-Mawḍūʿāt" from the narration of al-ʿUqaylī, and he criticized it with what I quoted from al-ʿUqaylī earlier.

He said: and he mentioned it. Abū Nuʿaym disagreed, saying: Sufyān narrated it to us except that he added: "from his father from ʿAlī." It was recorded by al-Ḍiyāʾ (1/233) who said: "It was narrated by Isḥāq ibn Rāhwayh in his 'Musnad' from Abū Nuʿaym." However, Abū Nuʿaym recorded it in "al-Ḥilyah" (7/92): Sulaimān ibn Aḥmad narrated to us (he is
