What is the authenticity of the two hadiths regarding the virtues of the tribes of Sukun, Sakasik, and Khawlan, and is the first one found in Musnad Ahmad?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The first hadith has a weak chain of transmission due to the unknown identity ( جهالة) of 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid ibn Mawhab al-Amluki. The second hadith is also weak due to the weakness of Ibn Lahi'ah and the unknown identity of the man from Banu Awd. The summary is that neither report is authentic because each revolves around an unknown narrator. Nothing authentic has been reported specifically regarding the virtue of Khawlan, though authentic hadiths have been reported concerning the virtue of Yemen in general.
