And it was narrated to us by Muhammad ibn Bashshar and Abdullah ibn Hashim, both saying: narrated to us Yahya — namely al-Qattan — from Sufyan, from Sa'd ibn Ibrahim. Ibn Hashim said: from Abdullah ibn Ka'b ibn Malik, from his father; and Ibn Bashshar said: from Ibn Ka'b ibn Malik, from his father — from the Prophet, peace be upon him, similar to their hadith. And both of them said in their narration from Yahya: "And the parable of the disbeliever is the parable of the cedar tree."
