(1) Here too, the two editors of the al-Risāla edition altered the text, printing: “to what is good in them but You, and none wards off what is evil in them,” as found in the printed edition of al-Mustadrak. (2) No. 2022, with fuller wording. An abridged version was also transmitted by Ahmad (18054), Abū Dāwūd (5079), al-Nasā’ī in al-Kubrā (9859), and al-Tabarānī in al-Kabīr (19:433) and al-Du‘ā’ (665). All transmit it through ‘Abd al-Rahmān ibn Hassān al-Kinānī, from Muslim ibn al-Hārith (or al-Hārith ibn Muslim—the name is disputed), from his father, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Al-Barqānī (p. 68, ed. Majdī) asked al-Dāraqutnī about these narrators, and he replied: “‘Abd al-Rahmān is from Homs; there is nothing objectionable about him. Muslim is of unknown standing.” Al-Albānī graded the hadith as weak and discussed it in detail; see al-Da‘īfa (1624). (3) The words “from the Fire” are omitted in manuscript kāf. (4) No. 9848. Its chain includes al-Husayn ibn Bishr, whom the author will discuss later. It was also transmitted by Abū Bakr al-Rūyānī in his Musnad (2:311), through a chain containing ‘Alī ibn Sadaqa, of whom al-Hāfiz said in al-Lisān (5:550): “He transmits unusual reports.” Ibn al-Sunnī also transmitted it in ‘Amal al-Yawm wa-l-Layla (124), through a chain containing Ahmad ibn Hārūn, who transmits objectionable reports, and two other narrators with some weakness. Al-Tabarānī likewise transmitted it in al-Kabīr (8:114), al-Du‘ā’ (675), and Musnad al-Shāmiyyīn (824), through several chains. Some contain al-Husayn ibn Bishr; another contains Muhammad ibn Ibrāhīm ibn al-‘Alā’ ibn Zibrīq, who used to steal hadiths—see Tārīkh al-Islām (5:1210) and Lisān al-Mīzān (6:472). Yet another contains Hārūn ibn Dāwūd al-Najjār al-Tarsūsī, for whom I have found no biographical entry. See also Natā’ij al-Afkār (2:294–295) and Tanzīh al-Sharī‘a by Ibn ‘Arrāq (1:288). It appears—and Allah knows best—that the hadith is not established, since every chain contains someone who transmits unusual reports, someone who transmits objectionable reports, or a hadith thief.
