Ma'di bin Sulayman narrates that Shu'ayth bin Mutayr narrated this hadith to us from his father, and that his father Mutayr was present when he narrated this hadith to me, and that he said to his father: "O dear father! You narrated to me that Dhul-Yadayn (may Allah be pleased with him) met you at the place Dhu Khashab and narrated to you that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led them in one of the prayers after the sun has passed its zenith; it was the Asr prayer, and he gave the salam after praying two rak'ahs." Then he mentioned the complete hadith. In it there is also that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) afterwards led them in two rak'ahs, then gave the salam, then performed the prostrations of forgetfulness.
Some narrators relate in the hadith of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Dhul-Shimalayn (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah! Has the prayer been shortened, or have you forgotten?" The two Shaykhs of the two Sahihs, al-Bukhari and Muslim (may Allah have mercy on them), did not declare authentic those narrations in which this error is evident, and our Shaykh Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz (may Allah have mercy on him) used to say: "Whoever says this has made a mistake."
For Dhul-Shimalayn (may Allah be pleased with him) died earlier, he left no descendants, and there is no one who narrates from him.
