As for Shahr, the discussion on him came earlier in the chapter on impurities (al-najāsāt), and that al-Tirmidhī graded as sound (ṣaḥīḥ) a hadith through his channel. And Umm al-Dardāʾ, Hujaymah, was among the daughters of the Successors (al-tābiʿīn) and their righteous ones; Ibn Ḥibbān mentioned her in his book of trustworthy narrators (al-Thiqāt), and al-Tirmidhī graded her hadith as sound (ṣaḥīḥ).
