Everything in this book that is narrated from Umar ibn Hanzalah has been transmitted by me from Al-Husayn ibn Ahmad ibn Idris - may Allah سبحانه وتعالى be pleased with him - from his father, from Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from Muhammad ibn Isa, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Dawud ibn Al-Husayn, from Umar ibn Hanzalah.
