and he is weak due to his memory. The first part of it was narrated by ʿAbd al-Razzāq (10/406) from al-Aʿmash as a marfūʿ ḥadīth. Its narrators are trustworthy, but it is muʿḍal. The phrase "the evil eye is true" is agreed upon from the ḥadīth of Abū Hurayrah, and its citation has been mentioned earlier (1248) and it is also authentic from the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿAbbās, as previously mentioned (1250 and 1251). Then I found supporting evidence for the first phrase, but it is not something to be pleased with, because it is narrated by ʿUfayr ibn Maʿdān from Sulaym ibn ʿĀmir from Abū Umāmah as a marfūʿ ḥadīth with the wording of the ḥadīth of the translation. It was extracted by al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr" (8/192/7686). I said: Its narrators are trustworthy except for ʿUfayr ibn Maʿdān, who is abandoned, and he has several fabricated ḥadīths that indicate his condition. Refer to the indexes of the four printed volumes. Then I reconsidered and said: His statement "there is nothing in the owl" is in meaning like his statement (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam): "no owl," and this has been established in a number of authentic ḥadīths with al-Bukhārī and Muslim and others from the ḥadīth of Abū Hurayrah and others, and their citations have been mentioned earlier with the following numbers (780, 782, 783, 785, and 789), and in some of them with the wording: ".. and no owl." Given this, I decided to include the ḥadīth in this authentic series due to the totality of these supporting evidences after I had included it in "Ḍaʿīf al-Jāmiʿ al-Ṣaghīr" (6309 - first legal edition). Therefore, I transferred it to "Ṣaḥīḥ al-Jāmiʿ," as I included it in my new book from the project of bringing the sunnah closer to the nation: "Ṣaḥīḥ al-Adab al-Mufrad" under (355 - Chapter of Optimism - 411), and I am about to finish it, if Allāh wills. Then I completed it,
