then I saw that al-Bayhaqī included it in "al-Shuʿab" (5/26/5643) through the chain of ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Aḥmad ibn Manṣūr al-Kisāʾī al-Hamdānī: narrated to us Muḥammad ibn Khalīd al-Ḥanafī: narrated to us ʿAbd al-Wāḥid ibn Ziyād, from Misʿar from ʿAlī ibn al-Aqmar from ʿAwn ibn Abī Juḥayfah from his father with it.
