It was narrated to us by more than one narrator from Ṣafwān bin Ṣāliḥ, and we do not know of it except as a narration of Ṣafwān bin Ṣāliḥ, and he is trustworthy according to the people of Ḥadīth. This Ḥadīth has been reported through more than one route from Abū Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ, and we do not know of many narrations [with Ṣaḥīḥ chains] in which there is mention of the Names, except in this Hadīth. Ādam bin Abī Iyās related this Hadīth with different chain, from Abū Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ, and he mentioned the Names, but it does not have a Ṣaḥīḥ chain.
