(1) (ظ، ب): “It has indeed been said that these two words encompass.” (2) The original reads: “*tabdur* (fly off).” (3) Recorded by al-Tabarānī in *al-Awsat* (8159) and *al-Duā’* (1033), and by Ibn al-Sunnī in *Amal al-Yawm wa-al-Laylah* (334), from the hadith of Anas, on the authority of Abū Talhah. Its wording is: “He said: We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a military expedition when we encountered the enemy. I heard him say, ‘O Master of the Day of Judgment, You alone we worship, and You alone we seek for help.’ I then saw men being struck down as the angels smote them from before and behind.” Al-Tabarānī said: “This hadith is narrated from Abū Talhah only through this chain, and Abū al-Rabī alone transmitted it. I heard Mūsā ibn Hārūn say: I asked Uthmān ibn Tālūt about Hanbal, and he replied, ‘They say that he was a man from Banū Quray.’ I also asked him about Abd al-Salām ibn Hāshim, and he said, ‘An elderly shaykh from Basra.’ I asked, ‘Was he trustworthy?’ He replied, ‘I know nothing but good of him.’” Al-Haythamī said in *al-Majma* (5/592): “It was narrated by al-Tabarānī in *al-Awsat*, and its chain contains Abd al-Salām ibn Hāshim, who is weak.” I could not locate the wording quoted by the author. The author did, however, cite the report with the wording given above in his book *al-Kalim al-Tayyib* (p. 30). (4) The verse is omitted in (ز). (5) Recorded by Ahmad (15022), Abū Dāwūd (2795), Ibn Mājah (3121), al-Dārimī (1989), Ibn Khuzaymah (2899), al-Hākim (1/467), al-Bayhaqī (9/287), and others, from the hadith of Jābir ibn Abd Allāh (may Allah be pleased with them both). Ibn Khuzaymah graded the hadith authentic, and al-Hākim said: “It is authentic according to Muslim’s criteria.” Al-Albānī also graded it authentic in *al-Irwā’* (1152).
