Muḥammad ibn al-Haytham ibn Ḥammād

Muhammad ibn al-Mundhir ibn Saʿid al-Harawi and Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Kufi related to us; they said: Muhammad ibn al-Haytham ibn Hammad informed us; he said: Muhammad ibn Ismaʿil ibn ʿAyyash related to us; he said: My father related to us, from Abu Hanifa, from Hammad, from Ibrahim, from ʿAlqama, may God have mercy on them, from ʿAbd Allah, may God be pleased with him, from the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace: He used to give the greeting to his right, 'Peace be upon you and God's mercy,' until the whiteness of his right cheek could be seen, and to his left in the same way until the whiteness of his left cheek could be seen from how far he turned.
