"the Lord said: It has already been decreed by Me that they will not return to it, and this verse was revealed: (And do not think of those who have been killed in the way of Allāh as dead) (Āl ʿImrān, 169)." Its chain of transmission is good, as stated by al-Mundhirī (2/191), and it was deemed good by al-Tirmidhī (3010) and al-Mizzī, and authenticated by al-Ḥākim (3/203-204), and it is included in "Ẓilāl al-Jannah" (1/267-268). There is a very weak corroborating ḥadīth narrated by Fayḍ ibn Wathīq: Abū ʿUbādah al-Anṣārī told me: Ibn Shihāb informed me from ʿUrwah from ʿĀʾishah (raḍiya Allāhu ʿanhā) who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said to Jābir: ... and he mentioned it without the verse. It was recorded by al-Ḥākim (3/203), al-Bayhaqī in "Dalāʾil al-Nubuwwah" (3/298), and al-Bazzār in "Musnad" (3/259), and he said: "It is not narrated from ʿĀʾishah except through this chain, and Abū ʿAbād (sic) was narrated from by Abū Dāwūd, al-Qāsim ibn al-Ḥakam, and al-Faḍl." I said: It appears as (Abū ʿAbād) here, and likewise in "al-Jarḥ wa-al-Taʿdīl" (6/281/1559). In "Kunyā al-Bukhārī" (54/468) as in the isnād: "Abū ʿUbādah," and similarly in "al-Tahdhīb" and its branches, but when al-Bukhārī cited a ḥadīth from the route of Abū Dāwūd al-Ṭayālisī, it appeared as (Abū ʿAbād), so it seems to be an old discrepancy, and his name is: (ʿĪsá ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Furwah al-Zuraqī), and he is abandoned. As for al-Ḥākim, he said: "The isnād is authentic!" Al-Dhahabī commented on this by saying: "I say: Fayḍ is a liar!"
