(Note) Al-Ḥāfiẓ attributed this ḥadīth to al-Dārimī in "al-Talkhīṣ" (p. 333), and al-Shawkānī followed him in this in "Nayl al-Awṭār" (5/243). It is a well-known convention among scholars that when al-Dārimī is mentioned without specification, it refers to Imām ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, the author of the book "al-Sunan" known as "al-Musnad." Therefore, I began to search for it in his work, but in vain, and that was before I came across the isnād of the ḥadīth in Sunan al-Bayhaqī. At that time, it became clear to me that he was not the one intended, but rather ʿUthmān ibn Saʿīd al-Dārimī, through whom al-Bayhaqī narrated it, so I thought to point this out. Furthermore, al-Shawkānī made an error that is even further from correctness, as he said that the isnād of al-Dārimī is according to the conditions of Muslim. He did not mention the exception that was noted by al-Ḥāfiẓ! Moreover, there is another supporting narration for the ḥadīth from Ubayy ibn Kaʿb, but its isnād is weak, and I have discussed it in "al-Irwāʾ" (1488), and what has been mentioned is sufficient.

- "Whoever recites the Quran should ask Allāh by it, for there will come people who recite the Quran and ask people by it." It was narrated by al-Tirmidhī (4/55) and Aḥmad (4/432-433 and 439) from Sufyān, from al-Aʿmash, from Khaythamah, from al-Ḥasan, from ʿImrān ibn Ḥuṣayn that he passed by a reciter who recited and then asked, so he expressed disapproval and then said: I heard the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) say: and he mentioned it. Al-Tirmidhī said: "Maḥmūd (meaning his teacher Ibn Ghaylān) said: This is Khaythamah al-Baṣrī, from whom Jābir al-Juʿfī narrated, and he is not Khaythamah ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān. This is a ḥasan ḥadīth, and this Khaythamah is a Baṣran shaykh known as Abū Naṣr." I said: Ibn Maʿīn said about him: He is nothing
