This one is sounder than the first, but it too is not authentic, because it is mursal. Ibn Taymiyyah attributed it to Abu Dawud in al-Kalim al-Tayyib (no. 121), but this is an error that Ibn al-Qayyim followed him in making in al-Wabil al-Sayyib. Its editor, Shaykh Abd al-Qadir, did not notice this (pp. 148–149), despite the fact that I had already drawn attention to it in my annotations on al-Kalim al-Tayyib. At that time, I stated that I had not seen it and that it was perhaps a corruption, or an inadvertent error arising from the version that says, “three times,” for al-Tabarani had included that version in his al-Du'a.

Now that Allah has blessed me with obtaining the book, it has become clear that both versions are weak, though the version mentioning three times is weaker than the other. Allah is the Grantor of success.

An authentic hadith. It is narrated by Habib ibn Abi Thabit, from Dharr, from Sa'id ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Abza, from his father, from Ubayy ibn Ka'b, attributed to the Prophet. There is disagreement over whether it is attributed to the Prophet and whether Dharr is mentioned in its chain of transmission.

As for its attribution to the Prophet, al-A'mash narrated it from him in this manner. Al-Tirmidhi (2253) and al-Nasa'i, in Amal al-Yawm (521/934), recorded it—the wording being that of al-Tirmidhi—who said: Ishaq ibn Ibrahim ibn Habib ibn al-Shahid al-Basri narrated to us; Muhammad ibn Fudayl narrated to us; al-A'mash narrated to us, from Habib ibn Abi Thabit, through this chain. He said: “A good, authentic hadith.”

I say: Its chain of transmission is authentic. Its narrators are trustworthy narrators of al-Bukhari and Muslim, apart from this Ishaq, and he is
