and al-Sāmī, Muḥammad ibn Rumḥ, Harmalah, ʿĪsā ibn Ḥammād, Abū al-Rabīʿ al-Rashdīnī, al-Ḥārith ibn Miskīn, Sulaymān ibn Salamah al-Khubaʾīrī, and others of their rank in Khurasan, the Hijaz, Egypt, Syria, and Iraq.

Those who narrated from him include his travelling companion al-Ḥasan ibn Sufyān, ʿAlī ibn Humshādh, and Abū ʿAbd Allah ibn al-Akhram—yes, I slipped; in reality al-Ḥasan ibn Sufyān only transmitted through his son, Abū Bakr ibn al-Ḥasan, from Tamīm.

The ḥāfiẓ Abū ʿAbd Allah al-Ḥākim said: “He is a traditionist, reliable, and an author who compiled the large Musnad.”

Al-Ḥākim did not record his date of death. Among those who related from him was Abū al-Naḍr the jurist. Most likely he died sometime in the eighties or nineties of the two-hundreds AH (roughly 280–290 AH). As for Ṭumghāj, the first consonant is pronounced with a ḍammah.
