هذا في إسناده نظر
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 4205 - Bazzār
وهذا الحديث لا نعلمه يروى عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بهذا اللفظ إلا من هذا الوجه بهذا الإسناد وإنما كتبناه مع لين ياسين لأنا لم نعرفه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إلا بهذا الإسناد فلذلك كتبناه وبينا العلة فيه
machine translationWe do not know this hadith to be narrated from the Prophet ﷺ with this wording except through this route, with this chain of transmission. We wrote it down despite the weakness (layyin) of Yāsīn, because we did not know it from the Prophet ﷺ except through this chain; for that reason we wrote it down and explained the defect in it.
