and Ḥāmid ibn Abī Ḥāmid al-Muqriʾ, I do not know him either, except that it is possible he is Ḥāmid ibn Yaḥyā ibn Hāniʾ al-Balkhī, Abū ʿAbd Allāh, a resident of Ṭarsūs, one of the teachers of Abū Dāwūd in his "Sunan." They mentioned in his biography that he narrated from Sufyān ibn ʿUyaynah. If he is this person, then he is reliable. The ḥadīth is supported by the ḥadīth of Abū Hurayrah, raised [to the Prophet]: "The wind is from the spirit of Allāh; it brings mercy and it brings punishment..." the ḥadīth.

Sufyān also followed him from Muḥārib with it. It is possible that Muḥārib narrated it sometimes with that wording and raised it, and sometimes with this and stopped it, and Allāh knows best. It is supported by the fact that Qays ibn al-Rabīʿ narrated it from Muḥārib ibn Dithār as raised with the wording of Shuʿbah. It was recorded by al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Kabīr" (1761). There are other ḥadīths with similar meanings that testify to it. The ḥadīth was also recorded by al-Ḥākim (4/141) from the first route and added:
