al-Bukhārī: "His ḥadīth is not authentic." If he intended to weaken it, there is no issue, but if he meant a specific ḥadīth, he did not mention it. As for the rest of its narrators, they are the narrators of the authentic collections. I say: I see no harm in using it as supporting evidence. And Allāh knows best. As for the ḥadīth of Kaʿb ibn ʿUjrah to which al-Mundhirī referred, it is not suitable as supporting evidence due to its severe weakness. Al-Haythamī said (4/312): "It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in 'al-Kabīr' and 'al-Awsaṭ', and it includes al-Sarī ibn Ismāʿīl, who is abandoned." I say: And from his route, Abū Bakr al-Shāfiʿī included the first half of it in his 'Fawāʾid'.

- "Two people's prayers do not rise above their heads: a slave who runs away from his masters until he returns to them, and a woman who disobeys her husband until she returns." It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in 'al-Muʿjam al-Ṣaghīr' (p. 97) and 'al-Awsaṭ' (1/169/2) from Muḥammad ibn Abī Ṣafwān al-Thaqafī, who said: Ibrāhīm ibn Abī al-Wazīr narrated to us, and al-Ḥākim in 'al-Mustadrak' (4/173) through the route of Muḥammad ibn Mandah al-Aṣbahānī, who said: Bakr ibn Bakkār narrated to us. Both said: ʿUmar ibn ʿUbayd narrated to us— the first added: al-Ṭanafīsī— from Ibrāhīm ibn Muhājir from Nāfiʿ from Ibn ʿUmar, raised [to the Prophet]. Al-Ṭabarānī said: "No one narrated it from Ibrāhīm except ʿUmar, and no one from him except Ibn Abī al-Wazīr; it was uniquely reported by Muḥammad ibn Abī Ṣafwān." Thus he said, but the route of al-Ḥākim contradicts this, and both he and al-Dhahabī remained silent about it. Its isnād is good in my view; its narrators are trustworthy, the narrators of the two Shaykhs, except for Ibn Muhājir, who is among the narrators of Muslim alone, and he has slight weakness. Al-Ḥāfiẓ said in 'al-Taqrīb': "Truthful, but weak in memory."
