- "There are two dawns: one is called the tail of the wolf, which is false and extends vertically but not horizontally, and the other dawn extends horizontally but not vertically." It was recorded by al-Ḥākim (1/191), and from him by al-Bayhaqī (1/377) and al-Daylamī (2/344) from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Rūḥ al-Madāʾinī, who narrated from Yazīd ibn Hārūn, who narrated from Ibn Abī Dhiʾb, from al-Ḥārith ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Thawbān, from Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh, who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: and he mentioned it. Al-Ḥākim said: "Its isnād is authentic," and al-Dhahabī agreed with him. It was mentioned as supporting evidence for the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿAbbās mentioned earlier, number (693). I say: And its isnād is good, its narrators are trustworthy and mentioned in "al-Tahdhīb," except for ʿAbd Allāh ibn Rūḥ al-Madāʾinī, whom al-Khaṭīb mentioned in "Tārīkh" (9/454) and said about al-Dāraqutnī: "There is no harm in him." Al-Ḥāfiẓ said in "al-Lisān": "Among the trustworthy shaykhs of Abū Bakr (al-Shāfiʿī)." I say: But it was recorded by Ibn Jarīr in "Tafsīr" (vol. 3, no. 2995), al-Dāraqutnī (p. 231), and al-Bayhaqī (1/377 and 4/215) through different chains from Ibn Abī Dhiʾb, but it is mursal and does not mention Jābir. Al-Dāraqutnī said: "This is mursal." Al-Bayhaqī said: "And it is more authentic." I say: But the ḥadīth is authentic due to its supporting evidence mentioned earlier. It has another supporting evidence recorded by al-Dāraqutnī from al-Walīd ibn Muslim, from al-Walīd ibn Sulaymān, who said: I heard Rabīʿah ibn Yazīd say: I heard ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn ʿĀʾish, a Companion of the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), say: and he mentioned it similarly, and said: "Its isnād is authentic." And I say: This Ibn ʿĀʾish, it is said in "al-Taqrīb": "It is said he was a Companion, and Abū Ḥātim said: Whoever says in his narration: I heard the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), has erred." Al-Walīd ibn Muslim practices tadlīs al-taswiyah. It has other supporting evidence, some of which are in "Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim" and are extracted in "Ṣaḥīḥ Abī Dāwūd" numbers (2031 - 2033), and one of them will appear as number (2031)
