• I have not seen anyone who has clearly states that he was a weak narrator. Rather the weakness of the hadith is because of his father who is an unknown narrator. See al-Irwa, no. 2123. N.B. The translation mentions the Companions using a rosary. This is a lie, not occurring at all in the Arabic. May Allah protect us from attributing such a wicked innovation to any of the Companions. 119:798, pg. 430/ 118:801, pg. 158

 28)"Abu Darda' ... one who memorizes the first ten verses of Surat al- Kahf ... and in a narration: from the end of Surah-ul Kahf." (Muslim)

• This particular narration 'from the end' instead of 'from the beginning' is shadh (reliable reporter contradicting more reliable reporters). 183:1021, pg. 521/ 182:1025, pg. 189
