He also attributed it in al-Jāmiʿ al-Kabīr (1/11/2) to al-Ṭabarānī, al-Ḥākim, al-Bayhaqī in al-Shuʿab, and al-Ḍiyāʾ al-Maqdisī in al-Mukhtārah. However, I did not find it in the latter. His usual practice was to arrange the hadiths of each Companion according to the names of those who narrated from him, yet I did not find him mentioning this Mālik ibn Saʿd at all among those who narrated from him. Thus, I do not know whether al-Suyūṭī was mistaken, or whether al-Ḍiyāʾ narrated the hadith through a route other than that of this Mālik. Allah knows best.

His statement, “the one who presses it,” means: for himself. Al-Ṣiḥāḥ states: “I pressed a juice—that is, I made it.” Al-Ashrafī said: He may press its juice for someone else, whereas “the one who presses” is one who presses it for himself, as in the distinction between kāla and iktāla, and between qaṣada and iqtaṣada.

It is recorded by Aḥmad (3/319) and Ibn al-Sunnī (631), through Jaʿfar ibn Sulaymān al-Ḍubaʿī, who said: Abū al-Tayyāḥ narrated to us: “I said to ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Khinbash al-Tamīmī—who was an elderly shaykh—‘Did you meet the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ I said: ‘What did the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, do on the night when the devils plotted against him?’ He said: ‘That night, the devils descended upon the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, from the valleys and mountain passes.
