Hadith 134

‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «يُسَلط عَلَى الْكَافِرِ فِي قَبْرِهِ تِسْعَةٌ وَتِسْعُونَ تِنِّينًا تنهشه وتلدغه حَتَّى تقوم السَّاعَة وَلَو أَنَّ تِنِّينًا مِنْهَا نَفَخَ -[49]- فِي الْأَرْضِ مَا أَنْبَتَتْ خَضِرًا» . رَوَاهُ الدَّارِمِيُّ وَرَوَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ نَحْوَهُ وَقَالَ: «سَبْعُونَ بدل تِسْعَة وَتسْعُونَ»
Abu Sa'id reported God’s messenger as saying, “Ninety-nine dragons will be given power over an infidel in his grave, and will bite and sting him till the last hour comes. If one of those dragons were to breathe over the earth, it would bring forth no green thing." Darimi transmitted it, and Tirmidhi transmitted something similar, but he said seventy instead of ninety-nine.

Hadith Authentication:
It is Hasan (good).

◈ In the chain of al-Darimi, there is the narrator Darraj, who is trustworthy and hasan al-hadith (good in narration), but his narration from Abu al-Haytham is weak. See: [تقريب التهذيب : 1824، و سنن الترمذي : 2033 بتحقيقي]
◈ And this narration has been reported by Darraj from Abu al-Haytham,
therefore, this chain is weak.
In the chain of al-Tirmidhi, both ‘Ubaydullah ibn al-Walid and ‘Atiyyah al-‘Awfi are weak.

Note:
Darraj’s narration from Abu al-Haytham is not weak, rather it is hasan (good). See: [اضواء المصابيح فى تحقيق مشكاة المصابيح ح : 222]
Therefore, the narration of al-Darimi is hasan li-dhatihi (intrinsically good). «والحمد لله عليٰ اصلاح ذلك»
