"as for al-Bayāḍī, they say: his name is (Furwah ibn ʿAmr ibn Wadaqah), a clan from the Khazraj." He affirmed this in the biography of (Furwah) in "al-Istīʿāb," saying: "There is no disagreement about the name of this al-Bayāḍī." I said: whether this is confirmed or not, the important thing is to ensure that the narrator of this ḥadīth from him—ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam—is a Companion, not an unknown Successor, as I mentioned there. When the aforementioned correction came to me, it prompted me to investigate the matter anew, especially since the publication of some ḥadīth sources that were not previously printed aided this. I found al-Bayāḍī explicitly stating that he heard the ḥadīth from the Prophet ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam, so he is a Companion; whether we know his name or not, because all the Companions of the Prophet ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam are considered trustworthy. They differ in this regard from those who came after them, as established among the Ahl al-Sunnah, contrary to the innovators and rejecters. This is the reason why the Imām of the Sunnah included this ḥadīth of al-Bayāḍī in his "Musnad" and others. And Allāh is the source of success. *

He said: The companion of the mosque has three qualities: a brother to benefit from, a word of wisdom, or awaited mercy." It was narrated by Imām Aḥmad (2/418): Qutaybah told us, saying: Ibn Lahīʿah narrated to me from Darāj from Ibn Ḥujayrah from Abū Hurayrah from the Prophet ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam—he said: ... and he mentioned it. I said: This isnād is good; for Darāj is reliable in narration except for what he narrated from Abū
