[15] This hadîth is reported in many valuable books. For example, it is written on the first page of the translation of Al-milal wa ’n-nihal that it exists in the four books of Sunan and that it is explained more detailedly in at-Tirmidhî’s book. It is also written in the Sahîhain of al-Bukhârî and Muslim. Furthermore, it is written on the 609th page of Sharh al-Mawâqif, which is one of the greatest kalâm books taught in high grades of madrasas, and in the 67th letter of the second volume of Maktûbât by al-Imâm ar-Rabbânî. The ahl al-bid’a and disbelievers deny this hadîth.
