Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26180

Abu Kurayb told us, Abdah bin Sulaiman told us, on the authority of Muhammad bin Amr, on the authority of Abu Salamah, on the authority of Abu Hurairah, he said, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said He said: “If it were not to make it difficult for my nation, I would have ordered them to use the siwak at every prayer.” Abu Issa said, and he narrated this hadith. Muhammad bin Ishaq, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ibrahim, on the authority of Abu Salamah, on the authority of Zaid bin Khalid, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. And the hadith of Abu Salamah, on the authority of Abu Hurairah And Zaid bin Khaled on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. Both of them are authentic in my opinion because they were narrated in more than one way, on the authority of Abu Hurairah, on the authority of The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, this hadith. And the hadith of Abu Hurairah is only authentic because it was narrated from more than one source. As for Muhammad ibn Ismail, he claimed The hadith of Abu Salamah on the authority of Zayd bin Khalid is more authentic. Abu Issa said, and in the chapter on the authority of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, Ali and Aisha And Ibn Abbas, Hudhayfah, Zayd bin Khalid, Anas, Abdullah bin Amr, Ibn Omar, Umm Habibah, Abu Umamah, and Abu Ayyub Tammam bin Abbas, Abdullah bin Hanzalah, Umm Salamah, Wathilah bin Al-Asqa’, and Abu Musa.
