حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي الثَّلْجِ، - رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَغْدَادَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَاحِبُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ زَرْبِيٍّ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الأَحْوَلِ، وَثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمَسْجِدَ وَرَجُلٌ قَدْ صَلَّى وَهُوَ يَدْعُو وَيَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ الْمَنَّانُ بَدِيعُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ تَدْرُونَ بِمَ دَعَا اللَّهَ دَعَا اللَّهَ بِاسْمِهِ الأَعْظَمِ الَّذِي إِذَا دُعِيَ بِهِ أَجَابَ وَإِذَا سُئِلَ بِهِ أَعْطَى ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ‏.‏

Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn Abi al-Thalj, a Baghdadi known as Abu ‘Abd Allah and a companion of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, narrated to us; Yunus ibn Muhammad narrated to us; Sa‘id ibn Zarbee narrated to us, from ‘Asim al-Ahwal and Thabit, from Anas, who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque while a man who had prayed was supplicating, saying: ‘O Allah, there is no god but You, the Bestower, Originator of the heavens and earth, Possessor of Majesty and Honor.’ The Prophet said: ‘Do you know by what he called upon Allah? He called upon Allah by His Greatest Name, by which, if He is called upon, He answers, and if He is asked, He gives.’ Abu ‘Isa said: ‘This is a gharib report from Thabit, from Anas. It has also been narrated from Anas through another route.’

  • ‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ‏.

    The Arabic calls this a gharib report and mentions another route from Anas; the English witness omits these compiler notes.

    Should these source notes be retained with the witness?
