Everything in this book that is narrated from Malik Al-Juhani has been transmitted by me from my father - may Allah (swt) be pleased with him - from Ali ibn Musa ibn Ja'far ibn Abi Ja'far Al-Kamandani, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn 'Isa, from Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, from 'Amr ibn Abi Al-Miqdam, from Abu Muhammad Malik ibn A'yan Al-Juhani. He was an Arab from Kufa and not from the family of Sansan.
