al-Ṭabarī, Muḥibb al-Dīn (d. 694)

al-Ṭabarī, Muḥibb al-Dīn (d. 694), mentions the Tashaffuʿ of Muḥammad b. Kaʿb al-Hilālī in the chapter of visiting the Prophet

Narrated by Anas: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Whoever comes to visit me, nothing motivated him except my visit, it is his right that I should intercede for him on the Day of Resurrection."
