3403. Farwah bin Nawfal, may Allāh be pleased with him, narrated that he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allāh, teach me something that I may say when I go to my bed." So he said: "Recite: Say: 'O you disbelievers'[4] for verily it is a disavowal of Shirk."
Shu'bah said: "Sometimes he would say: 'One time' and sometime he would not say it. (Ḥasan)"
(Another chain) from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father: "That he came to the Prophet ﷺ" then he mentioned similar in meaning. And this is more correct.
[Abū 'Eisā said:] And Zuhair reported this Hadīth from Ishāq, from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father from the Prophet ﷺ, with similar. This is more appropriate and more correct than the narration of Shu'bah. The companions of Abū Ishāq were confused in the narration of this Hadīth. This Hadīth has been reported through routes other than this. 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Nawfal reported it from his father from the Prophet ﷺ. 'Abdur-Rahmān is the brother of Farwah bin Nawfal.
