Al-Nawawī identifies the Abū Jaʿfar al-Hāshimī of report 65 as ʿAbd Allāh b. Miswar b. ʿAwn b. Jaʿfar b. Abī Ṭālib. He connects this identification with al-Bukhārī’s biographical record in al-Tārīkh, which discusses the lineage and the account reported by Raqabah. One should not assign criticism to an invented second narrator simply because the printed isnād uses the nisbah «al-Hāshimī al-Madanī».
Al-Nawawī distinguishes manuscript forms: «al-Madanī» (المدني) at this location, «al-Madīnī» (المديني) with an additional yāʾ in some copies, and «al-Madāʾinī» (المدائني) earlier in the book. The latter superficially suggests a different geographical origin, but spelling and nisbah differences here do not on their own prove two distinct people. Narrator identity must be resolved through the biographical evidence, not surface similarity or difference alone.
