Azami 8187

Tabarani narrated it in Musnad Raqaba bin Masqala, from his own compilation, and Ibn Manda in his Amali. From their route, Ibn Hajar cited it in Taghliq (3/487), through the narration of Isa bin Musa, from Abu Hamza, from Raqaba bin Masqala, from Qays bin Muslim, from Tariq bin Shihab, who said, "I heard Umar bin Khattab say," then he mentioned it.Bukhari mentioned it in the Book of the Beginning of Creation (3192) as a suspended report from Isa, from Raqaba, from Qays bin Muslim with his chain, except that "Abu Hamza" was dropped between Isa and Raqaba, as Ibn Hajar noted. He said, "This is how it appears in most copies, and a man was dropped from it in Firabri's narration. It appears in Hammad bin Shakir's narration with Abu Hamza Sukari confirmed between Isa and Raqaba." Abu Masud Dimashqi and others affirmed this. See Fath al-Bari (6/290), and also see Tuhfat Ashraf (10470), except that he mentioned it in a weak form of attribution, while others mentioned it with certainty, as in the Yuninee copy and the narration of Ibn Asakir and others.Ibn Hajar transmitted from Daraqutni that he said, "Abu Hamza narrated this alone from Raqaba." I say, Abu Hamza is trustworthy and reliable, so his being the sole narrator does not harm the hadith.He also transmitted from Ibn Manda that he said, "This is a sahih hadith, gharib, narrated alone by Isa bin Musa." I say, but Ali bin Hasan bin Shaqiq corroborated him, narrating it from Abu Hamza in similar wording. Abu Naeem extracted this hadith in his Mustakhraj, as mentioned in Fath al-Bari, except that he said, "Its chain is daif." He clarified in Taghliq that its chain contains Nadr bin Salama Shazan, and said of him, "He steals hadiths." Yet he graded it sahih in Amali Mutlaqa (p. 175).
