From this clarification, it becomes evident the leniency—or error—of the commentator on "Majmaʿ al-Baḥrayn" when he said (8/128) under the ḥadīth of Layth ibn Abī Sulaym that follows: "However, al-Ṭabarānī narrated it in 'al-Kabīr' (12/71) in a similar manner, and its isnād is good"! The correct statement should be: "Its isnād is good due to other supporting evidence." Regarding the narration of Layth mentioned; it was recorded by al-Bazzār (4/176/3480) through the route of ʿAbd al-Wāḥid ibn Ziyād from Layth from Ṭāwūs from Ibn ʿAbbās with it. It was also recorded by al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr" (11/33/10953) and "al-Awsaṭ" (1/162/1/3022) where he said: "No one narrated this ḥadīth except ʿAbd al-Wāḥid." I say: He is trustworthy, as are all the other narrators; however, Layth had become confused, so he is among those suitable for citation, and he narrated it with another isnād; he said: from ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Saʿīd ibn Jubayr from his father from Ibn ʿAbbās with it, similar to the narration of Yaʿlá, the father of Yaḥyá, except for the second part of it. It was recorded by al-Bazzār (2/210/1536), and Ibn Abī ʿĀṣim in "al-Sunnah" (2/246/745 and 359/773) in an abbreviated form. It was recorded by Aḥmad and his son ʿAbd Allāh in his additions (1/257) with the second part only, except in an abbreviated form with the wording: "And I will precede you to the Basin; whoever arrives will succeed. And people will be brought..." the ḥadīth. Among the peculiarities is the statement of Shaykh Aḥmad Shākir, may Allāh have mercy on him, in his commentary on "al-Musnad" (4/94)
