"and it is confirmed in 'Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim' as a marfūʿ ḥadīth that Ḥāṭib will enter Paradise." This confused some Moroccan students, as it seemed they searched for it in 'Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim' and did not find it. They asked me about it during my first journey to Morocco in the year 1396. The fact that it is a narration by meaning is very clear, because the Prophet's (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) testimony that Ḥāṭib will not enter the Fire necessitates his entry into Paradise, as there is no intermediate state between the two!

They rise, perform ablution, and their sins fall from their eyes. They pray, and they are forgiven for what is between them. Then you ignite again between that. When it is time for the first prayer, he calls: O children of Adam, rise and extinguish what you have ignited against yourselves. They rise, perform ablution, and pray, and they are forgiven for what is between them. When ʿAṣr arrives, it is the same. When Maghrib arrives, it is the same. When ʿIshāʾ arrives, it is the same. They sleep, and they have been forgiven. Then he said: Some travel in goodness and some travel in evil."

Then al-Ṭabarānī narrated it through the route of ʿAbd al-Rabbih ibn Maymūn al-Naḥḥās from al-Rabīʿ ibn Ḥuẓayyān from ʿĀṣim in a similar manner
