the additional wordings whose sources have been cited above are authentic and firmly established.

797 — “If any of you loves his companion, let him go to him at his home and tell him that he loves him for the sake of Allah.”

Ibn al-Mubārak narrated it in al-Zuhd (188/1; al-Kawākib, 575; and no. 712—the Indian edition): Ibn Lahīʿah narrated to us; Yazīd ibn Abī Ḥabīb narrated to us that Abū Sālim al-Jayshānī came to Abū Umayyah at his home and said, “I heard Abū Dharr say...” He then cited it attributed to the Prophet, adding at the end: “For I have come to you at your home.”

I say: This is an authentic chain; all its narrators are trustworthy. Ibn Lahīʿah’s reports are sound when one of the narrators known as the ʿAbādilah narrates from him, and Ibn al-Mubārak is one of them. ʿAbd Allah ibn Wahb also narrated it from Ibn Lahīʿah in al-Jāmiʿ (p. 36).

798 — “If the two parties to a sale disagree and have no evidence, then the word is that of the owner of the goods, or they shall mutually rescind the sale.”

It is a hadith of ʿAbd Allah ibn Masʿūd, may Allah be pleased with him. It has been reported from him through disconnected chains; some are mursal, while some are connected and strong.
