The aforementioned is weak; it is not authentic due to two defects: the ‘an‘anah of Muhammad ibn Ishaq, and the weakness of Salamah ibn al-Fadl al-Abrash and his frequent errors. It was weakened by Al-Busiri, Al-Iraqi, Al-Mu’allimi Al-Yamani, and Al-Albani. Al-Ghazali cited it, and Ibn Al-Jawzi disapproved of it. Even if the Hadith were authentic, the word "za‘ama" (claimed/alleged) used in it could be interpreted as not exclusively implying doubt, but rather meaning "said" or "informed," based on what is stated in Muslim, where the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, affirmed the one who said, "You claimed that Allah sent you."
