and it has a basis. However, al-Dhahabī disagreed and said in "al-Mīzān": "It is not known who he is." And if al-Ḥāfiẓ has deemed him truthful, and four have narrated from him, then there is no doubt that if eight, rather nine, trustworthy narrators have transmitted from him, it is not reasonable to attribute the defect to him, especially when there are others more deserving of it. It is strange that al-Ḥāfiẓ overlooked that Abū Fāṭimah is mentioned in the three aforementioned sources: "al-Tārīkh," "al-Jarḥ," and "al-Thiqāt," and that he mentioned him in his book "al-Lisān" very briefly, saying (6/28-29): "Miskīn Abū Fāṭimah, from al-Tammār ibn Yazīd, and from him al-ʿAbbās ibn al-Walīd al-Narsī. Al-Dāraquṭnī said: Weak in ḥadīth." I say: this is an unexplained weakening, and I fear it might be similar to the weakening by Abū Ḥātim, which I have shown to be weak. And Allāh knows best. Moreover, he (Miskīn Abū Fāṭimah) was not the only one who narrated it; rather, ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿUmar also narrated it from Nāfiʿ, with an addition, and his wording is: "For this righteous servant for whom the Throne shook, the gates of the heavens were opened, and seventy thousand angels attended, who had never descended to earth before, and indeed he embraced..." etc. It was recorded by Ibn Saʿd in "al-Ṭabaqāt" (3/430): Ismāʿīl ibn Abī Masʿūd informed us, saying: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Idrīs informed us, saying: ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿUmar informed us of it. From this perspective, al-Khaṭīb also recorded it in "al-Tārīkh" (6/250) in the biography of Ismāʿīl
