he said so! And he was not unique in narrating it—he is trustworthy—for he was followed by Muḥammad ibn al-Muṣaffá according to Ibn Abī Ḥātim, but he is considered weak. The ḥāfiẓ said: "Truthful, but he has errors, and he used to practice tadlīs." I said: He explicitly stated the transmission, but he did not mention in his isnād: (Muḥammad ibn Qays al-Asadī), so perhaps that is one of his errors! In any case, the isnād is good, all its men are trustworthy, except for Muʿāwiyah ibn Ḥafṣ—who is al-Shaʿbī al-Ḥalabī. The ḥāfiẓ said: "Truthful." Therefore, al-Haythamī said: "It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in 'al-Awsaṭ', and its isnād is good." Secondly: Ibn Abī Ḥātim said: Abū Saʿīd al-Ashajj narrated to us: ʿAbd Allāh ibn al-Ajlaḥ narrated from Muḥammad ibn ʿAmr from Sālim from Saʿīd ibn Jubayr from Ibn ʿAbbās similar to the ḥadīth of Jābir; but he did not mention: "then from whom you respond." And its isnād is good and ḥasan; and Muḥammad ibn ʿAmr: is Ibn ʿAlqamah al-Madanī, and Sālim is Ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUmar. Something of this was narrated from his father; it is: Thirdly: al-Bukhārī extracted in "Tārīkh" from al-Qāsim ibn Mukhaimarah who said: I came to Ibn ʿUmar, and he welcomed me, then recited: (Whoever among you reverts from his religion, Allāh will bring forth a people whom He loves) (Sūrah al-Māʾidah, verse 54), then he struck my shoulder and said: I swear by Allāh; they are from you, the people of Yemen (three times). It was mentioned by al-Suyūṭī in "al-Durr al-Manthūr" (2/292)
