and al-Tayalisi (504), as did Ibn Majah (3280) and Ahmad (4/394).

3—As for the hadith of Aishah: al-Nasa’i (8896) reported it through al-Harith ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Abu Salamah, from her, with this wording.

I say: Its chain of transmission is sound. *

3536—“Indeed, in Paradise there is a tree which a rider on a swift, lean, well-bred horse would travel for one hundred years without traversing it.”

It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Sa‘id, Abu Hurayrah, Sahl ibn Sa‘d, and Anas ibn Malik.

As for the hadith of Abu Sa‘id: it was reported by al-Bukhari (6553), Muslim (8/144), and al-Dulabi in The Kunyas (1/160), through al-Nu‘man ibn Abi ‘Ayyash, from him.

‘Atiyyah also narrated it from Abu Sa‘id with similar wording, adding:

He said: “That is the extended shade.”

As for the hadith of Abu Hurayrah: it has many routes, of which I shall mention the most important:

The first: from al-A‘raj, from Abu Hurayrah, with similar wording, adding:

“In its shade.” At its end, he said:

“And recite, if you wish: ‘and an extended shade.’”

It was reported by al-Bukhari (4881), Muslim (8/144), and Abu Nu‘aym in The Description of Paradise (234/403).

The second: from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi ‘Amrah, from him, with identical wording.
