How sound is the hadith narrated by Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, which mentions the signs of the ruin of a number of countries?
Al-Qurtubi prefaced this hadith with a weak narration formula (ruwiya - it was narrated), and Ibn Kathir attributed it to Al-Qurtubi. Al-Suyuti and Al-Manawi attributed it to Al-Daylami in Musnad Al-Firdaws. Whatever Al-Suyuti attributes to Al-Daylami is weak. Abu Amr Al-Dani narrated it through Abdul-Moneim bin Idris, from his father, from Wahb bin Munabbih. This chain of narration is broken and corrupted, for Idris bin Sinan is weak, and Abdul-Moneim used to lie and fabricate hadith.
