Note / Clarification: This word is not visible in manuscripts (Z) and (B); in manuscript (S) its place is left blank, and it has dropped out of (M). We have established it from al-Dhahabi's "Talkhis al-Mustadrak". "Al-qaynah" means: a fair-skinned slave-girl, whether she is a singer or not; and some said it is used specifically for a singing slave-girl.

Grading: Its narrators are thiqah (trustworthy), but it is "mursal", because Ikrimah is a Successor (tabi'i).
Important point: However, this report is well known and narrated by several other routes, except that the mention of "the two slave-girls" (al-qaynatayn) occurs only in this narration, while other narrations mention wealth in general.

Corroborating chains and supporting reports: And see what will come at number (5812). It is supported by the mursal narration of Abu Uthman al-Nahdi found in Ibn Sa'd (3/ 208), Ahmad's "Fada'il al-Sahabah" (1509) and Ibn Hibban (7082), among others, with a chain whose narrators are thiqah.

Note / Clarification: His words "nathala kinanatahu" mean: he drew the arrows out of his quiver.

Grading: Its narrators are thiqah (trustworthy), but what is "mahfuz" (preserved) in it is that it is a narration of Hammad bin Salamah from Ali bin Zayd bin Jud'an (who is weak by agreement), from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib as "mursal".
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Thus Ibn Sa'd narrated it from Sulayman bin Harb, from Hammad bin Salamah, and several thiqah hadith masters (huffaz) among Hammad bin Salamah's students narrated it from him in the same way, as will be explained below. The narrator "Thabit" refers to Ibn Aslam al-Bunani.

Reference / Source: Ibn Sa'd (3/ 209) narrated it, and by his route Ibn Asakir in "Tarikh Dimashq" (24/ 228) and Ibn al-Jawzi in "al-Muntazam" (5/ 156), from Sulayman bin Harb, from Hammad bin Salamah, from Ali bin Zayd bin Jud'an, from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib as "mursal".
Note / Clarification: In the printed editions of "Tabaqat Ibn Sa'd" it is written "Hammad bin Zayd", which is an error; it is corrected from the narrations of Ibn Asakir and Ibn al-Jawzi.

Reference / Source: It was recorded by Ibn Sa'd (3/ 209), al-Baladhuri in "Ansab al-Ashraf" (1/ 182), al-Harith bin Abi Usamah (as in "Bughyat al-Bahith" 679), Abu Nu'aym in "Hilyat al-Awliya'" (1/ 151), Ibn Abd al-Barr in "al-Isti'ab" (p. 341), Ibn Asakir (24/ 228) and Ibn al-Jawzi in "al-Muntazam" (5/ 156) by way of Affan bin Muslim; and by Ibn Sa'd (3/ 209), Ibn Abi Hatim in his "Tafsir" (2/ 368), Ibn Abd al-Barr in "al-Isti'ab" (p. 341) and Ibn Asakir (24/ 228, and 225-229) by way of Abu Salamah Musa bin Isma'il; and by Ibn Asakir (24/ 229) by way of Hajjaj bin al-Minhal. All three of them (Affan, Abu Salamah and Hajjaj) narrate from Hammad bin Salamah, from Ali bin Zayd, from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib as "mursal".
Technical note / Defect ('illah): In the printed editions of "Tabaqat Ibn Sa'd", Hammad is specified as "Hammad bin Zayd", which is an error. It is corrected from the narration of Ibn Asakir and Ibn al-Jawzi, who narrated this report by way of Ibn Sa'd and there Hammad is specified as "Ibn Salamah"; and this is what is preserved (mahfuz): that the report belongs to Hammad bin Salamah.

Note / Clarification: This narration will come at number (5811) by another route from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib, from Suhayb, as "mawsul" (connected), but its chain has some softness (lin).
