and similarly al-Qāsim ibn Muḥammad, and he is not the trustworthy Madanī. Al-Ḥāfiẓ Ibn Ḥajar said: "I think he is a Shāmī." Third: Abū Nuʿaym said: Muʿāwiyah ibn Ṣāliḥ narrated it from Abū ʿAbd al-Malik Muḥammad ibn Ayyūb from Ibn ʿĀʾidh from Abū Dharr in full. I said: And this Ibn Ayyūb was mentioned by Ibn Abī Ḥātim (3/2/196-197) with this narration, and he did not mention any criticism or commendation about him. And I do not know the name of Ibn ʿĀʾidh now. Fourth: From Yaḥyá ibn Saʿīd al-ʿAbshamī - from Banī Saʿd ibn Tamīm -: Ibn Jurayj narrated to us from ʿAṭāʾ from ʿUbayd ibn ʿUmayr from Abū Dharr with it. It was recorded by Abū Nuʿaym and al-Bayhaqī (9/4), but it was narrated from his path by al-Ḥākim (2/597) who named him Yaḥyá ibn Saʿīd al-Saʿdī al-Baṣrī, and he remained silent about him. Al-Dhahabī said: "I said: al-Saʿdī is not trustworthy." I said: The one who is not trustworthy is Yaḥyá ibn Saʿīd al-Madanī, and this is a Baṣrī, so he is different, and al-Ḥāfiẓ leans towards this in "al-Lisān," so refer to it. I said: And I do not know this al-ʿAbshamī, and al-Samʿānī did not mention him in this lineage. In summary: The number of messengers mentioned in the ḥadīth of the translation is authentic in itself, and the number of prophets mentioned in one of its paths, and in the ḥadīth of Abū Dharr from three paths, is authentic due to other than itself. Perhaps for this reason, when Ibn Kathīr mentioned it in "Tārīkh" (1/97) from the narration of Ibn Ḥibbān in "Ṣaḥīḥ," he remained silent about it and did not comment, indicating its authenticity to him. Likewise, al-Ḥāfiẓ Ibn Ḥajar did in "al-Fatḥ" (6/257)
