and by al-Bayhaqī in his two books "al-Shuʿab" (2/533) and "al-Dalāʾil" (6/465), and by Aḥmad (3/38-39) through the route of Bashīr ibn Abī ʿAmr al-Khawlānī, that al-Walīd ibn Qays narrated to him that he heard Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī say: I heard the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) say... and he mentioned it. Bashīr said: I asked al-Walīd: Who are these three? He replied: "The hypocrite disbelieves in it, the wicked person uses it for worldly gain, and the believer believes in it."

Al-Bazzār said: "We do not know it narrated in this wording except by Abū Hurayrah; and we do not know it except from this chain; Mukhlid uniquely narrated it from Hishām." I said: and they are both trustworthy narrators from the men of Muslim. And Muslim al-Jarmī is the son of Abū Muslim al-Jarmī; and his father's name is ʿAbd al-Raḥmān; blank
