وهذا الحديث لا نعلمه يروى عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إلا من هذا الوجه ومعاوية بن يحيى قد تقدم ذكرنا له لأنه ليس بالقوي وقد حدث عنه أهل العلم واحتملوا حديثه
machine translationWe do not know this hadith to be narrated from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ except through this route. Muʿāwiyah b. Yaḥyā has been mentioned by us before, because he is not strong (laysa bi-l-qawī), yet the people of knowledge have narrated from him and tolerated his hadith.

هذه الأحاديث غير محفوظة ولمعاوية غير ما ذكرت عن الزهري وغيره وعامة رواياتها فيها نظر
machine translationThese hadiths are not preserved (ghayr maḥfūẓah). Muʿāwiyah has narrations other than what I mentioned, from al-Zuhrī and others, and most of his narrations are open to criticism (fīhā naẓar).
