and the other is Abū Isḥāq al-Fazārī from Shuʿbah with it, recorded by Abū al-Shaykh in "al-Fawāʾid" (p. 81/2) and Ibn ʿAsākir in "Tārīkh Dimashq" (4/76/1). This Abū Isḥāq is Ibrāhīm ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥārith, who is a trustworthy, reliable ḥāfiẓ, and is cited in both "al-Ṣaḥīḥayn." I said: Thus, these are three trustworthy, reliable individuals who agreed on narrating the ḥadīth from Shuʿbah as marfūʿ, thereby confirming the ḥadīth. And the statement of al-Tirmidhī that the mawqūf version is more authentic is only because he was not aware of anyone raising it except Khālid ibn al-Ḥārith. However, since we have found others who have raised it, the marfūʿ version is more authentic. This is all in line with the saying: "How much the earlier ones have left for the later ones." There is another chain through Yaʿlá ibn ʿAṭāʾ. with Abū Nuʿaym in "al-Ḥilyah" (6/215), but I do not know if there is a distortion in its isnād or not.
