Haythamī said in Majma‘-uz-zawā’id (7:316) that B azzār had

Ibn Hammād narrated it in al-Fitan (1:362 # 1055); Suyūtī,
ad-Durr-ul-manthūr fit-tafsīr bil-ma’thūr (6:56); and B ayhaqī in
Dalā’il-un-nubuwwah (6:330,331).
Muslim related it with di fferent words in as-Sahīh, b. of fitan

4:2234 (#67/2913); Ahmad bin Hambal, al-Musnad (3:317); Hindī,
