In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.
- Ibn al-Qaṭṭān
لم يعتل على هذا الحديث بأكثر من هذا وحكمه على قارظ بأنه لا بأس به وعلى الحديث بالضعف تعيين لتضعيفه أبا غطفان
machine translationHe did not find any defect in this hadith beyond this. His judgement that Qāriẓ is "not bad" (lā baʾsa bihi), and that the hadith is weak (ḍaʿīf), specifies that his weakening is due to Abū Ghaṭafān.
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 443 - Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr
وأما لفظ الاستنثار فمحفوظ الأمر به من حديث ابن عباس
machine translationAs for the wording of snuffing water out of the nose (istinthār), the command to do so is well-preserved (maḥfūẓ) from the hadith of Ibn ʿAbbās.
