The narration is evidently mawdu’. It is the treachery of ‘Abdul Hussain to use deceptive words which are worthless in the sight of the ‘Ulama’ of hadith. He says, “Al Zamakhshari made irsal of it the irsal of accepted narrations.”^[1]

He played this trick on the narration: “May Allah curse the one who lags behind the army of Usamah,” making the same comment about al Shahrastani.

This is his style. When he fails to find a sanad for a narration by any of the authors―I did not say muhaddithin―he uses stretchable words like these to create the impression in the minds of people that the sanad is not significant. The original verdict regarding irsal is that it is worthless with the exception of those whose irsal is safe like al Sha’bi and others. Al Shahrastani and al Zamakhshari are not known for hadith that it can be said that they reported with irsal.
