defects such as tadlīs (concealment) and discontinuity, among others, unlike the other opinion. So be aware. Moreover, ʿAmr is not among the narrators of the ṣaḥīḥ. It is possible that the route of al-Ṭabarānī does not include ʿAmr ibn ʿUthmān al-Kilābī, as I found a corroborating narrator for him, reported by Ibn Abī ʿĀṣim in "al-Sunnah" (no. 621 - in my verification): Ayyūb al-Wazzān narrated to us, ʿUrwah ibn Marwān narrated to us, ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿAmr and Mūsá ibn Aʿyan narrated from ʿAbd al-Karīm. I said: This isnād has narrators who are reliable from the narrators of "al-Tahdhīb," except for ʿUrwah ibn Marwān - who is al-Raqī - mentioned by Ibn Abī Ḥātim (3/1/398) for his narration from a group of other reliable narrators, and only Ayyūb narrated from him, without mentioning any criticism or endorsement. However, he was mentioned in "al-Mīzān" and "al-Lisān" for his narration from a group of others, including Yūnus ibn ʿAbd al-Aʿlá. Al-Dāraqutnī said about him: "He is not strong in ḥadīth." Thus, he is someone whose narrations are used as supporting evidence. And Allāh knows best. Then I reviewed the isnād of "al-Awsaṭ," and it is from the route of ʿAmr, he said (1/287/2/4817): Abū Zurʿah narrated to us, ʿAmr ibn ʿUthmān narrated to us from it. This is a strong corroboration for al-ʿAbbās ibn al-Faḍl from Abū Zurʿah, who is ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn ʿAmr al-Dimashqī, the reliable ḥāfiẓ. And Ayyūb is Ibn Muḥammad ibn Ziyād al-Wazzān al-Raqī, and he is reliable. In summary, the ḥadīth, with the combination of the two routes, is ḥasan or ṣaḥīḥ. And Allāh knows best.

- "Cursed is the one who asks by the face of Allāh, and cursed is the one who is asked by the face of Allāh and then denies the request unless it is something disgraceful." It was narrated by Ibn ʿAsākir (8/397/2) from Muḥammad ibn Hārūn al-Ruyānī, who informed us, Aḥmad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān informed us, my uncle - meaning Ibn Wahb - narrated to me: ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAyāsh narrated from his father that Yazīd ibn
