Narrated by al-Tirmidhī (2/293) who graded it as ḥasan, and al-Ḥākim (3/85) who authenticated it, and Aḥmad (4/154), and al-Ruyānī in his "Musnad" (50/1), and al-Ṭabarānī as in "al-Muntaqá min Ḥadīthih" (4/7/2), and Abū Bakr al-Najjād in "al-Fawāʾid al-Muntaqāt" (17/1-2), and Ibn Samʿūn in "al-Amālī" (172/2), and Abū Bakr al-Qaṭīʿī in "al-Fawāʾid al-Muntaqāt" (4/7/2), and al-Khaṭīb in "al-Mawḍiḥ" (2/226), and Ibn ʿAsākir (3/210/2) from Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Muqriʾ who reported from Ḥayywah from Bakr ibn ʿAmr from Musharḥ ibn Hāʿān from ʿUqbah ibn ʿĀmir as marfūʿ.
