mansūr—who is Ibn al-Muʿtamir—and from him a large group of trustworthy narrators, so it is mutawātir from him, and here is the explanation: the first: Sufyān al-Thawrī—who is the most reliable among them: it was recorded by al-Tirmidhī (9/126/3423), al-Nasāʾī in "al-Sunan" (2/322), and "ʿAmal al-Yawm wa-al-Laylah" (176/87), as well as Ibn al-Sunnī (721), al-Ḥākim (1/519), Ibn Abī Shaybah in "al-Muṣannaf" (10/211/9250), Aḥmad (6/306), al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr" (23/320/727) and in "al-Duʿāʾ" (2/986/411) through various chains from him, and al-Tirmidhī said: "a ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ ḥadīth." al-Ḥākim said: "ṣaḥīḥ according to the criteria of the two Shaykhs, but they did not include it, and perhaps someone might mistakenly think that al-Shaʿbī did not hear from Umm Salamah, but this is not the case; for he visited both ʿĀʾishah and Umm Salamah; then he narrated extensively from both of them."
