“al-Mustadrak” (4483, 4484), Musnad Aḥmad (5696), and al-Ḥaakim said: “Its chain is<br />
“Ṣaḥeeḥ””, and al-Dhahabee agreed with him; and he (al-Ḥaakim) reported from two<br />
routes from Naafi`, from Ibn `Umar. Then he (al-Ḥaakim) and Ibn Maajah (105)<br />
reported it from the Ḥadeeth of `Aaishah .رضيُاهللُعنها 268 He (al-Ḥaakim) also reported it<br />
from the Ḥadeeth of Ibn Mas`ood .رضيُاهللُعنه 269 Ibn Sa`d also reported it in “al-Ṭabaqaat<br />
<strong>Al</strong>-Tirmidhee (3683) also reported it from the Ḥadeeth of Ibn `Abbaas رضيُاهللُعنهما that the Prophet ﷺ said: ❝O<br />
<strong>Al</strong>laah! Honor Islaam through Abu Jahl Ibn Hishaam or through `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab.❞ He (Ibn `Abbaas) said:<br />
“So it happened that `Umar came the next day to the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ and accepted Islaam.” But the<br />
chain of this narration was graded as “Ḍha`eef Jiddan” (very weak) by Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee. In its chain is al-Naḍhar<br />
Ibn `Abdul Ramḥaan al-Khazzaaz, and his narrations are abandoned.]<br />
268 [TN: In his Sunan (105), Ibn Maajah reported it from `Aaishah رضيُاهللُعنها that the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ said:<br />
❝O <strong>Al</strong>laah! Strengthen Islaam with `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab in particular.❞<br />
The Ḥadeeth is “Ṣaḥeeḥ li Ghairihee” (Ṣaḥeeḥ due to supporting chain) but without the wording: “in particular”,<br />
and the chain of this narration is “Ḍha`eef” (weak) due to `Abdul Malik Ibn al-Maajishoon and his Shaikh Muslim<br />
Ibn Khaalid al-Zanjee who have been declared as “Ḍha`eef” by a majority of the scholars. But this narration has a<br />
strong support. <strong>Al</strong>-Ḥaakim (4485) reported it from a different route, from `Abdul `Azeez Ibn `Abdullaah al-<br />
Uwaisee that Abee Salamah al-Maajishoon narrated, from Hishaam Ibn `Urwah, from his father, from `Aaishah<br />
<strong>Al</strong>- <strong>Al</strong>-Ḥaakim said: “It is “Ṣaḥeeḥ as per the condition of the Shaikhain””, and al-Dhahabee agreed with him. .اهللُعنها<br />
Ḥaafiẓh Ibn Ḥajar said in “al-Fatḥ” (7/48): “This was narrated by al-Ḥaakim and its chain is “Ṣaḥeeḥ”. And Shaikh<br />
al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee said: “It is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” like they have said”. See Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee’s “al-Ṣaḥeeḥah” (3225) for a detailed<br />
discussion on this.]<br />
269 [TN: Ibn Mas`ood رضيُاهللُعنه narrated: The Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ said: ❝O <strong>Al</strong>laah! Honor Islaam through<br />
`Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab or Abu Jahl Ibn Hishaam.❞ So <strong>Al</strong>laah accepted the supplication of His Messenger in the<br />
favor of `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab ,رضيُاهللُعنه and through him, He تعاىل spread the Islaamic nation, and through him<br />
destroyed the idols. [“al-Mustadrak” of al-Ḥaakim (4486)]]<br />

[TN: The following are a few narrations regarding `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab which became famous and widespread,<br />
but are “Ḍha`eef” (Weak):<br />
The first narration: Regarding the conversion of `Umar رضي اهلل عنه and he hitting his sister:<br />
a) The first narration: Ibn Is-ḥaaq said: Regarding the incident of `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab’s conversion to Islaam, as I<br />
have been informed, came about as a result of the conversion of his sister Faatimah Bint al-Khaṭṭaab, who was<br />
married to Sa`eed Ibn Zaid Ibn `Amr Ibn Nufail. She accepted Islaam and her husband also did the same, and they<br />
were concealing their conversion from `Umar. Nu`aim Ibn `Abdullaah al-Nahhaam, a member of the Banee `Adee<br />
tribe, had also converted to Islaam but had concealed his conversion from his people. Khabbaab Ibn al-Arat used<br />
to visit Faatimah Bint al-Khaṭṭaab to teach the Qur’aan to her. One day `Umar went out with the sword in his<br />
hand, looking for the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ,ﷺ who along with a group of his followers – he (`Umar) had been<br />
told – were in a house in al-Ṣafaa. And they were – including men and women – a group of around forty persons.<br />
Among the people who were with the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ were his uncle Hamzah, Abu Bakr Ibn Abee<br />
Quḥaafah al-Siddeeq, `<strong>Al</strong>ee Ibn Abu Ṭaalib ُ هللا ُ , who were among those Muslim men who had stayed behind<br />

in Makkah and did not migrate to Abyssinia. Nu`aim Ibn `Abdullaah met him and enquired: ‘Where are you<br />
heading, O `Umar?’ He replied: ‘I am looking for Muḥammad, the one who abandoned the religion (of his
