As for the hadith cited in the heading, al-Haythamī (9/324) said: “It was narrated by Aḥmad and al-Ṭabarānī, and the narrators of both are those of the Ṣaḥīḥ.” He then mentioned a corroborating report from the hadith of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abzā, abridging the story. However, the source reference for the hadith and the discussion of it were omitted, whether by the copyist or the printer. And Allah knows best.

2965 — “He set out [for Khaybar] when he appointed Sibāʿ ibn ʿUrfuṭah as his deputy over Medina. Abū Hurayrah said: I arrived in Medina as an emigrant and prayed the dawn prayer behind Sibāʿ. [In the first rakʿah, he recited ‘Kāf Hā Yā ʿAyn Ṣād,’] and in the second rakʿah he recited ‘Woe to Those Who Give Less [Than Due].’ Abū Hurayrah said: During the prayer, I said: ‘Woe to the father of so-and-so!

He spoke to the Muslims, and they included us in their shares.”

It was recorded by al-Bukhārī in al-Tārīkh al-Ṣaghīr (pp. 11–12), Ibn Ḥibbān (467), Ibn Saʿd (4/327–328), Aḥmad (2/345–346), al-Bazzār (3/79/2281), al-Fasawī in al-Maʿrifah (3/160), al-Ḥākim (3/36), and al-Bayhaqī in Dalāʾil al-Nubuwwah (4/198–199), through the route of ʿIrāk ibn Mālik, from Abū Hurayrah, who said: he then mentioned it. The wording is that of al-Fasawī; al-Bukhārī, al-Bazzār, and al-Ḥākim give it in abridged form, while the additional material is from Aḥmad, Ibn Saʿd, and al-Bayhaqī. Al-Ḥākim said:
