What is the authenticity of the hadith narrated by Yazid al-Raqashi from Anas ibn Malik, which describes Gabriel’s meeting with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and details about Hell, its gates, and its inhabitants, followed by the Prophet’s weeping, the Companions’ attempts to reach him, Fatima’s meeting with him, and the Prophet’s description of how those among his nation who committed major sins would enter Hell, then his intercession for them and their removal from it, in addition to other hadiths about the severity of Hell’s torment?

Yazid al-Raqashi is considered abandoned by the scholars due to his weakness. Similarly, Al-Haythami in "Majma' al-Zawa'id" and Al-Suyuti in "Al-Durr al-Manthur" weakened a section of the narrated by Al-Tabarani in "Al-Awsat" because it contained Salam al-Tawil, whose weakness is agreed upon.
