1073 - Muhammad ibn Mansur al-Makki informed us, saying: Sufyan narrated to us, saying: We memorized it from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, raised his head from the second rak'ah of the morning prayer, he said: "O Allah, save al-Walid ibn al-Walid, Salamah ibn Hisham, and 'Ayyash ibn Abi Rabi'ah, and the oppressed weak ones in Mecca. O Allah, tighten Your grip on Mudar, and make it for them years like the years of Joseph."

============================================
And 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Mubarak — who is trustworthy — narrated it from Bishr, with this chain of transmission, and explicitly named the Companion as Anas ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, as al-Daraqutni mentioned in al-'Ilal, 6/209.

It was also narrated via the route of Ayyub, from Ibn Sirin, both as a marfu' (raised to the Prophet) and mursal (with omitted link) report, as al-Daraqutni mentioned, and he stated that the best of these is the narration of Nu'aym ibn al-Haysam.

And 'Abbas ibn Yazid al-Bahrani narrated it from Bishr ibn al-Mufaddal, with this chain of transmission, except that he said: from Abu Hurayrah: When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, stood for prayer, he would stand for a while, then say the takbir. He erred in both its chain and its text, as al-Daraqutni mentioned in al-'Ilal, 4/86. And 'Abbas ibn Yazid al-Bahrani is truthful but makes mistakes, as al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned in Taqrib al-Tahdhib.

(1) His statement: al-Makki, is from (R) and (M).
(2) Its chain is authentic. Muhammad ibn Mansur: he is al-Jawwaz al-Makki, and Sufyan: he is Ibn 'Uyaynah, and al-Zuhri: he is Muhammad ibn Muslim ibn Shihab, and Sa'id: he is Ibn al-Musayyib. It is in al-Sunan al-Kubra under number (664).

Ahmad (7260), al-Bukhari (6200), Muslim (675): (294), Ibn Majah (1244) also narrated it via the route of Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah, with this chain of transmission, and in al-Bukhari's narration the prayer is not specified as the morning prayer.

Ahmad (9413), al-Bukhari (1006), (2932), and (3386) also narrated it via the route of 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Hurmuz al-A'raj, from Abu Hurayrah, with it. And in al-Bukhari's first narration there is an addition: that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Ghifar — may Allah forgive them — and Aslam — may Allah keep them safe."

And it will follow afterward from the narration of Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib and Abu Salamah ibn 'Abd al-Rahman, from Abu Hurayrah.
