أهمله الجماعة، والجيم مضمومة كما في سائر النسخ، ووجد بخط الذهبي في مختصر الصلة البشكوالية بفتحها أيضا.

وهو (جد والد أبي القاسم أحمد بن عبد الودود بن علي بن سمجون الهلالي الأندلسي الشاعر)، المحدث، مات سنة 608، ترجمته في كتاب الصلة لابن بشكوال، وقد ذكرناه في (س م ج) على أن النون زائدة، فإن كانت اللفظة أعجمية معرب سيم كون فمحله هنا ولعله راعى المصنف لذلك.

And he is (the grandfather of the father of Abu al-Qasim Ahmad ibn Abd al-Walud ibn Ali ibn Samjun al-Hilali al-Andalusi, the poet), the traditionist, who died in the year 608. His biography is in the book al-Silah by Ibn Bishkuwal, and we have mentioned him under (s-m-j) considering the noon as extra. If the word is foreign, Arabized from 'Sim Kun', then its place is here, and perhaps the author considered this.
