Al-Daraqutni also recorded it (no. 107) from Yahya ibn Maʿin, who said: “Muhammad ibn al-Hasan related it to us,” with the same wording. Al-Tabarani transmitted it as well in al-Awsat. Al-Haythami (2/104) comments: “Its chain is good (jayyid), and its transmitters are those used by the two Sahihs.” Another route is found in Abu Dawud (1/120); al-Bayhaqi (2/28) cites it from him, as do al-Nasaʾi (1/141), al-Daraqutni again (107) through that path, Ibn Majah (1/271), and Ibn Hazm in al-Muhalla (4/112–113). Their wording comes from Hushaym, who said: “Al-Hajjaj ibn Abi Zaynab al-Sulami informed us, from Abu ʿUthman al-Nahdi, from ʿAbd Allah ibn Masʿud, who said: ‘The Prophet saw me placing my left hand over my right in the prayer, so he took my right hand and set it on top of my left.’” Al-Nawawi judged this chain “sound according to the criteria of Muslim” (al-Majmuʿ, 3/312), and that assessment is correct, although al-Hajjaj has been critiqued; Ibn Hajar states in al-Taqrib that he is “truthful but prone to error.” Therefore Ibn Hajar, in Fath al-Bari (2/178), limited himself to grading the hadith hasan, and he also attributed it to Ibn al-Sakan’s Sahih. Al-Daraqutni further cited it through the route of Muhammad ibn Yazid al-Wasiti from al-Hajjaj with the same chain.
