It was also narrated by Ibn Mājah (1/108) from Wakīʿ with the same chain. Then it was narrated by Aḥmad (3/332) and likewise by al-Ḥākim (4/281) through two other routes from Sufyān with the wording: "When he would leave his house, we would walk in front of him, leaving his back for the angels." Al-Ḥākim remained silent about it, and its chain is authentic; all its narrators are trustworthy, the narrators of the six [books] except for Nabīḥ, who is a diminutive form and is Ibn ʿAbd Allāh al-ʿAnazī.

Al-Ḥākim said: "Its chain is authentic." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him, and it is as they said, and its narrators are trustworthy, the narrators of Muslim except for Yaḥyá ibn
