al-Mu'jam al-Awsat (1/119/2/2354), through Ali ibn Asim, from Sa'id al-Jurayri, from Abu Nadrah, from Jabir, with a similar report; however, he did not relate its wording in full.

Ali ibn Asim has been deemed weak because of his persistence in his errors, as mentioned several times earlier.

As for al-Hakim, he narrated only the second half of it (1/24), through Hisham ibn Sa'd, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from Jabir. He did not explicitly declare it authentic; rather, he cited it as supporting evidence for the hadith of Abu Hurayrah, who said:

“The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him, recited, ‘Indeed, He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing,’ then placed his index finger upon his eye and his thumb upon his ear.”

He said: “An authentic hadith according to Muslim’s conditions.” Al-Dhahabi concurred with him.

The passage concerning the expulsion of its dross was narrated by him (1884) in the hadith of Zayd ibn Thabit, and (1883) through another route from Jabir. *

Since the world began, no tribulation, small or great, has been brought about except as a prelude to the tribulation of the Dajjal.”

Ahmad narrated it (5/389): Wahb ibn Jarir narrated to us: My father narrated to us, saying: I heard al-A'mash, from Abu Wa'il, from Hudhayfah, who said:
