the defect is resolved by the suspension, and it becomes clear that it is a good isnād, for its narrators according to Abū Dāwūd are trustworthy, the narrators of the two Shaykhs, except for Abān ibn ʿAbd Allāh, who is al-Bajalī al-Kūfī, and he is considered reliable in ḥadīth as al-Dhahabī said in "al-Mīzān". Al-Ḥāfiẓ said in "al-Taqrīb": "Truthful, but with some weakness in his memory." Abū Tawbah's name is al-Rabīʿ ibn Nāfiʿ, and he is a teacher of Abū Dāwūd in "al-Marāsīl" (vol. 4, p. 2), and Wakīʿ followed him, saying: from Abān ibn ʿAbd Allāh al-Bajalī from ʿAdī ibn Thābit, and he mentioned it as mursal, and you know the response to it. It was recorded by Ibn Abī Shaybah in "al-Muṣannaf" (vol. 2, p. 117 - Hindiyyah). Al-Haytham ibn Jamīl disagreed, saying: Ibn al-Mubārak narrated to us from Abān ibn Taghlib from ʿAdī ibn Thābit from his father, and he mentioned it. It was recorded by Ibn Mājah (vol. 1, p. 349), and al-Būṣīrī said in "Zawāʾid" (vol. 72, p. 2): "This isnād has trustworthy narrators, but it is mursal." I say: and therein lies that this al-Haytham, despite being a ḥāfiẓ, Ibn ʿAdī said about him: "He makes mistakes concerning the trustworthy." It appears that he erred regarding Ibn al-Mubārak in two places in his isnād, as he mentioned Abān ibn Taghlib instead of Abān ibn ʿAbd Allāh. He also said: from ʿAdī ibn Thābit from his father, adding "from his father." All of this is incorrect and contrary to the narration of Abū Tawbah from Ibn al-Mubārak, and the narration of Wakīʿ from Abān ibn ʿAbd Allāh. Secondly: Muḥammad ibn al-Fuḍayl ibn ʿAṭiyyah said from Manṣūr from Ibrāhīm from ʿAlqamah from ʿAbd Allāh ibn Masʿūd, who said: "When the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) ascended the pulpit, we would face him with our faces."
