حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَسْوَدِ النَّضْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، عَنْ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ ، عَنْ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَهُ .
When Imam Ibn Majah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated this narration through the chain of his teacher Muhammad bin Ishaq, he mentioned the intermediary of Dahhak's father between Dahhak bin Abdur Rahman and Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him).

4: The Hadith of Abu Musa radi Allahu anhu
This has been narrated by Ibn Lahi‘ah through the chain of «عن الزبير بن سليم عن الضحاك بن عبد الرحمٰن عن أبيه قال: سمعت أبا موسي ……» etc.
Takhrij (Source References): Ibn Majah (1390/2), As-Sunnah by Ibn Abi ‘Asim (510, other copy: 522), As-Sunnah by Al-Lalika’i (3/447, Hadith 763)
In this chain, ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Arzab is unknown (majhool). [تقريب التهذيب: 3950]
Similarly, Zubair bin Sulaym is also unknown (majhool). [تقريب التهذيب: 1996]
In some books, due to an error, Rabi‘ bin Sulayman is written, and in some, Zubair bin Sulayman has been printed.
Conclusion: This chain is weak (da‘eef).
Note: In the second chain of Ibn Majah (1390/1), besides Ibn Lahi‘ah, Walid bin Muslim is a mudallis (one who practices tadlis), and Dahhak bin Ayman is unknown (majhool). [التقريب: 2965]
This chain is also disconnected (munqati‘), therefore this chain too is weak (da‘eef).
A detailed article is available in Silsilat al-Ahadith as-Sahihah, Hadith number 1144, according to the numbering of Al-Albani.
