344 — Abd al-Rahmān ibn Sālih narrated to us: Ismā‘īl ibn Ibrāhīm Abū Yahyā al-Taymī narrated to us: Mughīrah narrated to us, saying: Ibrāhīm—may Allah have mercy on him—disliked a man saying, “I seek refuge in Allah and in you.” But he permitted him to say, “I seek refuge in Allah, then in you.” He also disliked his saying, “Were it not for Allah and so-and-so,” but permitted him to say, “Were it not for Allah, then so-and-so.”
